Subject: [PATCH 5.4 027/104] net/mlx5: E-Switch, Prevent ingress rate configuration of uplink rep

From: Eli Cohen <eli@...lanox.com>

commit e401a1848be87123a2b2049addbf21138cb47081 upstream.

Since the implementation relies on limiting the VF transmit rate to
simulate ingress rate limiting, and since either uplink representor or
ecpf are not associated with a VF, we limit the rate limit configuration
for those ports.

Fixes: fcb64c0f5640 ("net/mlx5: E-Switch, add ingress rate support")
