While this chunk is correct, I think there's a logical conflict waiting
to happen with Saeed's pending patch touching this area ([1]).
You have inlined mlx5e_nic_set_rx_mode here, but after Saeed's patch
the mlx5e_is_uplink_rep condition added here should be dropped.
Not sure the automatic merge will do that.
