Subject: net/mlx5: E-Switch, Don't allow changing inline mode when flows are configured

From: Roi Dayan <roid@mellanox.com>


[ Upstream commit 375f51e2b5b7b9a42b3139aea519cbb1bfc5d6ef ]

Changing the eswitch inline mode can potentially cause already configured
flows not to match the policy. E.g. set policy L4, add some L4 rules,
set policy to L2 --> bad! Hence we disallow it.

Keep track of how many offloaded rules are now set and refuse
inline mode changes if this isn't zero.
