net/mlx5: E-Switch, load reps via work queue after registration

mlx5_eswitch_register_vport_reps() only installs representor callbacks and
marks the rep type as registered. If the E-Switch is already in switchdev
mode, the newly registered rep type must then be loaded for already enabled
vports.

That load path needs to run under the devlink lock, which is not held by
the auxiliary driver registration context. Queue the reload to the E-Switch
workqueue, whose handler acquires the devlink lock, and load the relevant
representors from there.

Since representor registration runs from sleepable auxiliary-driver
context, queue the late reload with GFP_KERNEL. The functions-change
notifier path remains the GFP_ATOMIC user of mlx5_esw_add_work().

The unregister path is unchanged and still unloads representors
synchronously while tearing down the registered callbacks.
