Is this perhaps saying that a bnx2x-driven device being used for
FCoE or iSCSI boot must not permit *any* run-time configuration
change which leads to a NIC reset?

That is right.  Unless you have a multipath configuration with multiple
ports, then you can reset one port at a time.

So, should there also be a "cnic_boot_device" check in many of the 
"capital letter" ethtool paths?
