net/mlx5: Fix mlx5_get_next_dev() peer device matching
In some use-cases, mlx5 instances will need to search for their peer
device (the other port on the same HCA). For that, mlx5 device matching
mechanism relied on auxiliary_find_device() to search, and used a bad matching
callback function.
This approach has two issues:
1) next_phys_dev() the matching function, assumed all devices are
of the type mlx5_adev (mlx5 auxiliary device) which is wrong and
could lead to crashes, this worked for a while, since only lately
other drivers started registering auxiliary devices.
2) using the auxiliary class bus (auxiliary_find_device) to search for
mlx5_core_dev devices, who are actually PCIe device instances, is wrong.
This works since mlx5_core always has at least one mlx5_adev instance
hanging around in the aux bus.
As suggested by others we can fix 1. by comparing device names prefixes
if they have the string "mlx5_core" in them, which is not a best practice !
but even with that fixed, still 2. needs fixing, we are trying to
match pcie device peers so we should look in the right bus (pci bus),
hence this fix.
The fix:
1) search the pci bus for mlx5 peer devices, instead of the aux bus
2) to validated devices are the same type "mlx5_core_dev" compare if
they have the same driver, which is bulletproof.
This wouldn't have worked with the aux bus since the various mlx5 aux
device types don't share the same driver, even if they share the same device
wrapper struct (mlx5_adev) "which helped to find the parent device"
