Subject: [PATCH net 6/9] net/mlx5e: Use ip6_dst_lookup instead of ipv6_dst_lookup_flow for MAC init

From: Jianbo Liu <jianbol@...dia.com>

Replace ipv6_stub->ipv6_dst_lookup_flow() with ip6_dst_lookup() in
mlx5e_ipsec_init_macs() since IPsec transformations are not needed
during Security Association setup - only basic routing information is
required for nexthop MAC address resolution.

This resolves an issue where XfrmOutNoStates error counter would be
incremented when xfrm policy is configured before xfrm state, as the
IPsec-aware routing function would attempt policy checks during SA
initialization.

Fixes: 71670f766b8f ("net/mlx5e: Support routed networks during IPsec MACs initialization")
