net/mlx5: Avoid false positive lockdep warning by adding lock_class_key
[ Upstream commit d59b73a66e5e0682442b6d7b4965364e57078b80 ]
Add a lock_class_key per mlx5 device to avoid a false positive
"possible circular locking dependency" warning by lockdep, on flows
which lock more than one mlx5 device, such as adding SF.
