Not an important change. No need to backport.

> 80b3e9cad7  Bruce Richardson net/ice/base: disable MSVC warning

>From looking at the 23.11 tree, I don't see any MSVC warning disabling at all in this driver, so I suspect
we aren't supporting building it with MSVC. Therefore, no need to backport this.
