mana_query_link_cfg() sends an HWC command to firmware on every call,
but the link speed and QoS values it returns only change when the
driver explicitly calls mana_set_bw_clamp(). This function is called
not only by userspace via ethtool get_link_ksettings, but also
periodically by hv_netvsc through netvsc_get_link_ksettings and by
the sysfs speed_show attribute via dev_attr_show, resulting in
unnecessary HWC traffic every few minutes.

Add a link_cfg_error field to mana_port_context to cache the query
result. The field uses three states: 1 (not yet queried, initial
value set during mana_probe_port), 0 (success, speed/max_speed are
valid), or a negative errno for permanent errors like -EOPNOTSUPP
when the hardware does not support the command. Transient errors and
qos_unconfigured responses are not cached so that subsequent calls
will retry.

To prevent a concurrent mana_set_bw_clamp() from racing with an
in-flight query and publishing stale pre-clamp speed/max_speed,
serialize the firmware transaction and the cache update under a new
per-port mutex (link_cfg_mutex). The mutex covers both the HWC
request and the subsequent stores in mana_query_link_cfg(), and the
HWC request and invalidation in mana_set_bw_clamp(). With this lock
held, two queries can no longer interleave their speed/max_speed
stores, and an invalidation can no longer slip in between a query's
response and its publish.

Invalidate the cache inside mana_set_bw_clamp() on success, so all
current and future callers that change the link configuration
automatically trigger a fresh query on the next mana_query_link_cfg()
call. Also reset link_cfg_error during resume in mana_probe() under
link_cfg_mutex, so that any slow-path query already in flight cannot
later store 0 and silently overwrite the post-resume invalidation.
