I said it would return with "pf->hw.func_caps.fcoe == false" in my last
response, more details below.

Nope since both cases we should do i40e_init_pf_fcoe() or don't based on fcoe
cap true or false.
I don't have much to add as I described before with the your patch that
"calling i40e_init_pf_fcoe() under I40E_FLAG_FCOE_ENABLED flag really won't
affect call flow to fix anything. I mean I40E_FLAG_FCOE_ENABLED condition will
be true with "pf->hw.func_caps.fcoe == true" and otherwise calling
i40e_init_pf_fcoe() simply returns back early on after checking
"pf->hw.func_caps.fcoe == false".
May be I'm missing something, I guess next either go with CONFIG_I40E_FCOE
disable as I suggested before and now it in upstream kernel or we can have
further off list discussion to fix the issue you are trying to fix with the
patch.
