Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: Fix HW spec violation configuring uplink
Make sure to modify uplink port to follow only if the uplink_follow
capability is set as required by the HW spec. Failure to do so causes
traffic to the uplink representor net device to cease after switching to
switchdev mode.
Fixes: 7d0314b11cdd ("net/mlx5e: Modify uplink state on interface up/down")
