If you're adding kdoc you should very clearly state this is function
should only be called if the driver lost the ability to maintain the
indirection table, usually after HW fault recovery reduced the max

ethtool_rxfh_indir_lost() would be a better name, it would align with
ethtool_rxfh_context_lost() right above the code you're adding, right?

Let's add an error in here like the one we have in
ethtool_rxfh_context_lost(), this should stop arbitrary use.
And you can remove the local warning in bnxt if we do that.
