mlxsw: spectrum_mr: Update egress RIF list before route's action
commit cbaf3f6 upstream. Each multicast route that is forwarding packets (as opposed to trapping them) points to a list of egress router interfaces (RIFs) through which packets are replicated. A route's action can transition from trap to forward when a RIF is created for one of the route's egress virtual interfaces (eVIF). When this happens, the route's action is first updated and only later the list of egress RIFs is committed to the device. This results in the route pointing to an invalid list. In case the list pointer is out of range (due to uninitialized memory), the device will complain: mlxsw_spectrum2 0000:06:00.0: EMAD reg access failed (tid=5733bf490000905c,reg_id=300f(pefa),type=write,status=7(bad parameter)) Fix this by first committing the list of egress RIFs to the device and only later update the route's action. Note that a fix is not needed in the reverse function (i.e., mlxsw_sp_mr_route_evif_unresolve()), as there the route's action is first updated and only later the RIF is removed from the list.
