[ Upstream commit 9d2cbdc5d334967c35b5f58c7bf3208e17325647 ]

Prior to this patch the driver prohibited spoof checking on invalid MAC.
Now the user can set this configuration if it wishes to.

This is required since libvirt might invalidate the VF Mac by setting it
to zero, while spoofcheck is ON.

Fixes: 1ab2068a4c66 ("net/mlx5: Implement vports admin state backup/restore")
