VxLAN offloading is not functional if the NIC is running in multichannel
mode (UMC, FLEX-10, VNIC...). Enabling this additionally kills whole
connectivity through the NIC and the device needs to be down and up to
restore it. The firmware should take care about it and does not allow
the conversion of interface to tunnel type (be_cmd_manage_iface) or should
support VxLAN offloading if multichannel config is enabled.
I have tested this on the latest available firmware (10.6.144.21).
