net/mlx5e: TC, Check if flow is PEER before acquiring devcom lock

This commit fixes an AA deadlock in the flow deletion path by introducing a
new PEER flag for duplicate flows on peer devices. It also claims to rename
the existing DUP flag to PRIMARY to clarify the distinction between the
original flow and its peers.

> - PEER: the duplicate flows created on peer devices

[Severity: Medium]
The commit message states that the DUP flag is renamed to PRIMARY, but this
rename is completely omitted from the patch.

For example, MLX5E_TC_FLOW_FLAG_DUP is still defined in the flags enum in
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/tc_priv.h, and it is still set
using flow_flag_set(flow, DUP) in mlx5e_tc_add_fdb_peer_flow() inside
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_tc.c.

Was this rename intended to be included in this patch, or should the commit
message be updated to remove this claim?
