Add new device generic parameter to enable/disable creation of
Ethernet auxiliary device and associated device functionality
in the devlink instance.

User who prefers to disable such functionality can disable it using below
example.

$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 \
              name enable_eth value false cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:06:00.0

At this point devlink instance do not create auxiliary device for the
Ethernet functionality.
