mlxsw: spectrum_router: Use FIB notifications instead of switchdev calls
Until now, in order to offload a FIB entry to HW we use switchdev op. However that has limits. Mainly in case we need to make the HW aware of all route prefixes configured in kernel. HW needs to know those in order to properly trap appropriate packets and pass the to kernel to do the forwarding. Abort mechanism is now handled within the mlxsw driver.
