Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: Prevent flow steering mode changes in switchdev
mode
JIRA: https://redhat.atlassian.net/browse/RHEL-169055

net/mlx5: Prevent flow steering mode changes in switchdev mode
Changing flow steering modes is not allowed when eswitch is in switchdev
mode. This fix ensures that any steering mode change, including to
firmware steering, is correctly blocked while eswitch mode is switchdev.
