With this change 'nfp_net_promisc_enable()' seems not used at all in the 
driver.

And the difference between above code and 'nfp_net_promisc_enable()' is 
that capability check is removed, so it looks like hack for flower, 
instead why not fix the issue in the 'nfp_net_promisc_enable()'?

Same comment for 'nfp_net_promisc_disable()'.
