net/mlx5: Fix sleep while atomic in mlx5_eswitch_get_vepa
commit 3d9c5e023a0dbf3e117bb416cfefd9405bf5af0c upstream. rtnl_bridge_getlink is protected by rcu lock, so mlx5_eswitch_get_vepa cannot take mutex lock. Two possible issues can happen: 1. User at the same time change vepa mode via RTM_SETLINK command. 2. User at the same time change the switchdev mode via devlink netlink interface. Case 1 cannot happen because rtnl executes one message in order. Case 2 can happen but we do not expect user to change the switchdev mode when changing vepa. Even if a user does it, so he will read a value which is no longer valid. Fixes: 8da202b24913 ("net/mlx5: E-Switch, Add support for VEPA in legacy mode.")
