net/mlx5: Bridge, verify LAG state when adding bond to bridge

Browse source

Mlx5 LAG is initialized asynchronously on a workqueue which means that for
a brief moment after setting mlx5 UL representors as lower devices of a
bond netdevice the LAG itself is not fully initialized in the driver. When
adding such bond device to a bridge mlx5 bridge code will not consider it
as offload-capable, skip creating necessary bookkeeping and fail any
further bridge offload-related commands with it (setting VLANs, offloading
FDBs, etc.). In order to make the error explicit during bridge
initialization stage implement the code that detects such condition during
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER event and returns an error.
