net/mlx5: Fix slab-out-of-bounds when handling team device events

The mlx5_handle_changeupper_event() and mlx5_handle_changeinfodata_event()
functions check for LAG masters (which includes both bonding and team
devices) but only call bonding-specific APIs. When processing team device
events, calling bond_slave_get_rcu() and bond_is_slave_inactive() on
team_port structures causes KASAN to detect an out-of-bounds memory access
since team_port is smaller than bond slave.

Fix this by wrapping the bond-specific API calls with a check for bonding
devices. This allows the function to still process LAG events for both
bonding and teams but only calls bond-specific functions when dealing with
actual bonding devices.

For mlx5_handle_changeinfodata_event(), keep the explicit bond check as
mlx5 doesn't handle state information for team ports anyway.

Tested with Mellanox ConnectX-5 on Linux 7.2.0-rc6:

• Bonding: PASS (no regressions)
• Team device: PASS (no KASAN errors)
