mlx5: avoid truncating error message
[ Upstream commit b324a960354b872431d25959ad384ab66a7116ec ]
clang warns that one error message is too long for its destination buffer:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/esw/bridge.c:1876:4: error: 'snprintf' will always be truncated; specified size is 80, but format string expands to at least 94 [-Werror,-Wformat-truncation-non-kprintf]
Reword it to be a bit shorter so it always fits.
