Public bug reported:
Backport recently upstreamed changes to the nfp driver to allow flash updates
to be written to Netronome SmartNICs using ethtool.
f.e.
# ethtool -f netdev_name flash-nic.bin
This feature is not currently present in the Bionic kernel and the above
command results in the following error:
Error return + "Flashing failed: Operation not supported\n"
This feature is implemented by the following upstream commits.
