The mlx4_core driver has a logic that allows a sub-driver to set the MLX4_INTFF_BONDING flag which then causes that function mlx4_do_bond() asks the sub-driver to fully re-probe a device when its bonding configuration changes. Performing this operation is disallowed in mlx4_register_interface() when it is detected that any mlx4 device is multifunction (SRIOV). The code then resets MLX4_INTFF_BONDING in the driver flags. Move this check directly into mlx4_do_bond(). It provides a better separation as mlx4_core no longer directly modifies the sub-driver flags and it will allow to get rid of explicitly keeping track of all mlx4 devices by the intf.c code when it is switched to an auxiliary bus.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
