Newly added code in the bnxt driver uses a couple of variables that
are never initialized when CONFIG_BNXT_SRIOV is not set, and gcc
correctly warns about that:

In file included from include/linux/list.h:8:0,
                 from include/linux/module.h:9,
                 from drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:10:
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c: In function 'bnxt_get_max_rings':
include/linux/kernel.h:794:26: warning: 'cp' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
include/linux/kernel.h:794:26: warning: 'tx' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:5730:11: warning: 'rx' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:5736:6: note: 'rx' was declared here

This changes the condition so that we fall back to using the PF
data if VF is not available, and always initialize the variables
to something useful.

This is the fix that made most sense to me, but that doesn't mean it's
the right thing to do for this driver, so please check carefully
whether falling back to PF is actually the correct behavior.

I'm assuming that BNXT_PF(bp) is meant to always be true if CONFIG_BNXT_SRIOV
is disabled, but I have not verified if this is guaranteed.

The assumption is correct.  Patch looks good.  Thanks.

Applied, thanks Arnd.
