Hi,

Basically this change came to avoid the following warning when compiling
the mlx5 driver with "W=1" flag and this error will appear for each
file that include the "en.h". 

So, I suggest not drop this change.

In file included from drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core//en_main.c:40:0:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core//en.h:206:19: warning: ‘mlx5e_priv_flags’ defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
 static const char mlx5e_priv_flags[][ETH_GSTRING_LEN] = {

Thanks,
Kamal
