scsi: ibmvfc: Add Kconfig dependency to fix link failure when NVME_FC=m

Browse source

Building with CONFIG_SCSI_IBMVFC=y and CONFIG_NVME_FC=m results in a
link failure:

  ibmvfc-nvme.o: undefined reference to `nvme_fc_register_localport'
  ibmvfc-nvme.o: undefined reference to `nvme_fc_register_remoteport'
  ibmvfc-nvme.o: undefined reference to `nvme_fc_unregister_localport'
  ibmvfc-nvme.o: undefined reference to `nvme_fc_unregister_remoteport'
  ibmvfc-core.o: undefined reference to `nvme_fc_rescan_remoteport'

IS_ENABLED() evaluates to 1 for both =y and =m, so the nvme_fc_*
call sites are kept in the object file. When SCSI_IBMVFC=y (built-in)
but NVME_FC=m (loadable module), the linker cannot resolve these
symbols at vmlinux link time.

Add the same "depends on NVME_FC || NVME_FC=n" constraint already
used by SCSI_LPFC to prevent this configuration.
