Revert "net/mlx5e: E-Switch, Initialize eswitch only if eswitch manager"
This reverts commit 5f5991f36dce1e69dd8bd7495763eec2e28f08e7. With the original commit, eswitch instance will not be initialized for a function which is vport group manager but not eswitch manager such as host PF on SmartNIC (BlueField) card. This will result in a kernel crash when such a vport group manager is trying to access vports in its group. E.g, PF vport manager (not eswitch manager) tries to configure the MAC of its VF vport, a kernel trace will happen similar as bellow: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 ... RIP: 0010:mlx5_eswitch_get_vport_config+0xc/0x180 [mlx5_core] ...
