As firmware does not support any link control from software driver
side, any phy config should be ignored as a workaround. Otherwise
the link might not be up again after binding back to kernel driver.

An error code seems more appropriate.
But I guess you perfectly know what you do, so
Applied, thanks

Yes, for now, I'd prefer to use I40E_SUCCESS. We will continue working on this when
firmware provides the link control to sw driver. Thank you very much!
