Subject: i40e: Fix unqualified module message while bringing link up
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
Git-commit: 16badf758b25bd00528246ab9af938296b9d368d
References: bsc#1101816 FATE#325147 FATE#325149

In current driver, when ifconfig ethx up is done, the link state
doesn't transition to UP inside i40e_open(). It changes after AQ
command response is handled in i40e_handle_link_event().

When pf->hw.phy.link_info.link_info is DOWN inside i40e_open(),
The state is transient and invalid. So log message gets printed
based on incorrect info (i.e link_info and an_info).

This commit removes check for unqualified module inside
i40e_up_complete(). The existing check in i40e_handle_link_event()
logs the error message based on correct link state information.
