RDMA/mlx5: Block FDB rules when not in switchdev mode
commit edc0b0bc upstream. Allow creating FDB steering rules only when in switchdev mode. The only software model where a userspace application can manipulate FDB entries is when it manages the eswitch. This is only possible in switchdev mode where we expose a single RDMA device with representors for all the vports that are connected to the eswitch.
