mlx4_core: adjust catas operation for SRIOV mode
When running in SRIOV mode, driver should not automatically start/stop the mlx4_core upon sensing an HCA internal error -- doing this disables/enables sriov, which will cause the hypervisor to hang if there are running VMs with attached VFs. In addition, on VMs the catas process should not run at all, since the HCA error buffer is not available to VMs in the BARs.
