IB/mlx5: Support RAW Ethernet when RoCE is disabled

Browse source

On some environments, such as certain SRIOV VF configurations, RoCE is
not supported for mlx5 Ethernet ports. Currently, the driver will not
open IB device on that port.

This is problematic, since we do want user-space RAW Ethernet (RAW_PACKET
QPs) functionality to remain in place. For that end, enhance the relevant
driver flows such that we do create a device instance in that case.
