net/mlx5: Fix switchdev mode rollback in case of failure
If for some internal reason switchdev mode fails, we rollback to legacy
mode, before this patch, rollback will unregister the uplink netdev and
leave it unregistered causing the below kernel bug.
To fix this, we need to avoid netdev unregister by setting the proper
rollback flag 'MLX5_PRIV_FLAGS_SWITCH_LEGACY' to indicate legacy mode.
