Public bug reported:

SRU Justification:

[Impact]

During the reboot and power cycle testing, QA found an intermittent issue
where "oob_net0" interface would experience RX MAC errors and fail to get
a DHCP-assigned IP.  There is a small window where packets can be received
before the RX path is fully initialized, sometimes resulting in RX errors
or RX ring full condition.

[Fix]

* Disable MAC RX filters in driver's probe() and only enable these RX 
  filters in driver's open() when all initialization is completed.

[Test Case]

* On BlueField-2 and BlueField-3, do reboot and power cycle testing
* Check that "oob_net0" interface is up, IP is assigned, and there are no RX 
errors.

[Regression Potential]

* no known regression.
