ice_eth is not dependent on CONFIG_INFINIBAND_IRDMA and can be built
perfectly without irdma. So technically, you disabled RDMA for such
kernels and users won't be able to load out-of-tree built module.

I don't care about out-of-tree code, but it is worth to add into commit
message, so users will know what to do it IRDMA stopped to work for them.

Thanks
