Subject: [net 11/12] net/mlx5e: Drop XFRM state lock when modifying flow steering

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@...dia.com>

XFRM state which is changed to be XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED doesn't really
need to hold lock while modifying flow steering rules to drop traffic.

That state can be deleted only and as such mlx5e_ipsec_handle_tx_limit()
work will be canceled anyway and won't run in parallel.

Fixes: b2f7b01d36a9 ("net/mlx5e: Simulate missing IPsec TX limits hardware functionality")
