net/mlx5e: Take advantage of the light-weight netdev open/stop
Now that TIRs, TISs and flow tables are kept alive while the netdev is stopped (after executing ndo_stop()) we can do the following improvements: - Obsolete the active_vlans SW shadow. - Do not delete/add flow table rules upon ndo_stop/open. In addition to simplifying the flow, this change also fastens the ndo_open/close operations. - Obsolete synchronization of threads accessing the flow tables with the netdev stop/open threads.
