[ Upstream commit d64f69b0373a7d0bcec8b5da7712977518a8f42b ]

ndo_bridge_getlink can return -EOPNOTSUPP when an interfaces
ndo_bridge_getlink op is set to switchdev_port_bridge_getlink
and CONFIG_SWITCHDEV is not defined. This today can happen to
bond, rocker and team devices. This patch adds -EOPNOTSUPP
checks after calls to ndo_bridge_getlink.

Fixes: 85fdb956726ff2a ("switchdev: cut over to new switchdev_port_bridge_getlink")
