Subject: [net-next 01/13] net/mlx5: E-switch, When eswitch is unsupported, return -EOPNOTSUPP

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

When eswitch is unsupported, currently -EPERM error code is returned
instead of -EOPNOTSUPP.

Due to this VF device's devlink virtual port is not enumerated because
port_function_get() callback returned -EPERM instead of -EOPNOTSUPP.

Hence, return the error code -EOPNOTSUPP when eswitch is unsupported.
