Subject: [PATCH net] devlink: Fix length of eswitch inline-mode

Set eswitch inline-mode to be u8, not u16. Otherwise, errors below

$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.0 mode switchdev \
  inline-mode network
    Error: Attribute failed policy validation.
    kernel answers: Numerical result out of rang
    netlink: 'devlink': attribute type 26 has an invalid length.

Fixes: f2f9dd164db0 ("netlink: specs: devlink: add the remaining command to generate complete split_ops")

Or we can fix the iproute2 to use u16?
