SRU Justification

[Impact]

* Upstream stable commit 65357e2c164a: "RDMA/mana_ib: set node_guid" applied incorrectly to noble:linux tree
* Commit depends on a previous commit, 8859f009ace2: "RDMA/mana_ib: Configure mac address in RNIC"
* 8859f009ace2 also depends on previous commits regarding RNIC adapter, which are not part of the noble:linux tree to this point
* It follows that 65357e2c164a: "RDMA/mana_ib: set node_guid" doesn't appear to be necessary and can be reverted

[Fix]

* Clean revert of 65357e2c164a: "RDMA/mana_ib: set node_guid"

[Test Plan]

* Compile tested

[Regression potential]

* Minimal regression risk as this simply fixes an incorrect patch
* It's possible that other patches already applied to the stable tree are dependent on this patch being included. However it was done incorrectly, and likely fixes a further regression caused by the inclusion of this commit in the first place.
