mlxsw: core: Prevent duplication during QSFP module initialization
Verify during thermal initialization if QSFP module's entry is already configured in order to prevent duplication. Such scenario could happen in case two switch drivers (PCI and I2C based) coexist and if after boot, splitting configuration is applied for some ports and then I2C based driver is re-probed. In such case after reboot same QSFP module, associated with split will be discovered by I2C based driver few times, and it will cause a crash. It could happen for example on system equipped with BMC (Baseboard Management Controller), running I2C based driver, when the next steps are performed: - System boot - Host side configures port spilt. - BMC side is rebooted.
