[PATCH] net/bnxt: fix a segmentation fault

Fix a segmentation fault root-caused to the following
1. bnxt testpmd queries the THOR2 capabilities using an HWRM.
2. Another HWRM is made that overwrites the capabilities context,
which results in the MPC context not being created.
3. Initializing TruFlow (which depends on the MPC context),
results in a SEGV.
The fix moves the 2nd HWRM after the capabilities have been
consumed.
