commit 25cc72a33835ed8a6f53180a822cadab855852ac upstream.
Jiri Slaby noticed that the backport of upstream commit 25cc72a33835
("mlxsw: spectrum: Forbid linking to devices that have uppers") to
kernel 4.9.y introduced the same check twice in the same function
instead of in two different places.
Fix this by relocating one of the checks to its intended place, thus
preventing unsupported configurations as described in the original
commit.

Greg, I read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt, so I hope the patch
is fine. Please let me know if v2 is required. Thanks
