VFs do not have privilege to configure the RSS key because the registers
are owned by the PF. Currently, if VF attempts to configure the RSS key,
enetc_set_rxfh() simply skips the configuration and does not generate a
warning, which may mislead users into thinking the feature is supported.
To improve this situation, add a check to reject RSS key configuration
on VFs.
