Subject: [PATCH 4.14 39/45] mlxsw: spectrum: Prevent force of 56G

[ Upstream commit 275e928f19117d22f6d26dee94548baf4041b773 ]

Force of 56G is not supported by hardware in Ethernet devices. This
configuration fails with a bad parameter error from firmware.

Add check of this case. Instead of trying to set 56G with autoneg off,
return a meaningful error.

Fixes: 56ade8fe3fe1 ("mlxsw: spectrum: Add initial support for Spectrum ASIC")
