net/mlx4_en: Avoid changing dev->features directly in run-time

[ Upstream commit 925ab1aa9394bbaeac47ee5b65d3fdf0fb8135cf ]

It's forbidden to manually change dev->features in run-time. Currently, this is
done in the driver to make sure that GSO_UDP_TUNNEL is advertized only when
VXLAN tunnel is set. However, since the stack actually does features intersection
with hw_enc_features, we can safely revert to advertizing features early when
registering the netdevice.
