Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mlx5: only register devlink when ethernet is available

We get a build error with the mlx5 driver when the ethernet
support (CONFIG_MLX5_CORE_EN) is disabled:

drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1320:22: error: 'mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set' undeclared here (not in a function)
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1321:22: error: 'mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_get' undeclared here (not in a function)
drivers/net/built-in.o:(.rodata+0x25a68): undefined reference to `mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_get'
drivers/net/built-in.o:(.rodata+0x25a6c): undefined reference to `mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set'

There are actually two problems here, but they are closely related,
so I'm addressing them both:

- The header is included under an #ifdef, which is usually a bad idea
  as it hides the function declarations, so we fail to compile even
  if we don't actually use the functions in the end.
- The references to the functions are kept in the object file because
  we don't check whether they are built-in or not.

As we don't want to add any useless #ifdef here, this uses an
IS_ENABLED() check to drop the mlx5_devlink_ops structure when we don't
need it, and to skip the register/unregister step.
