Subject: [PATCH 5.9 140/255] net/mlx5: E-switch, Avoid extack error log for disabled vport

From: Parav Pandit <parav@...dia.com>

[ Upstream commit ae35859445607f7f18dd4f332749219cd636ed59 ]

When E-switch vport is disabled, querying its hardware address is
unsupported.
Avoid setting extack error log message in such case.

Fixes: f099fde16db3 ("net/mlx5: E-switch, Support querying port function mac address")
