When devlink is configured as a loadable module, a built-in nfp driver
causes a link error:

drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `nfp_devlink_port_register':
(.text+0xb8b05): undefined reference to `devlink_port_type_eth_set'
drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `nfp_devlink_port_register':
(.text+0xb8b16): undefined reference to `devlink_port_split_set'

This adds a special Kconfig dependency on CONFIG_MAY_USE_DEVLINK
to avoid that combination and force nfp to be a module when NET_DEVLINK=m.

Fixes: 1851f93fd2ee ("nfp: add devlink support")

Thanks, this should be fixed in net-next already by commit 
d935bc84c940 ("nfp: add MAY_USE_DEVLINK dependency").  Same 
subject/commit title as yours :)
