net/mlx5e: Fix "scheduling while atomic" in IPsec MAC address query
Fix a "scheduling while atomic" bug in mlx5eipsecinitmacs() by replacing mlx5querymacaddress() with etheraddrcopy() to get the local MAC address directly from netdev->dev_addr.
The issue occurs because mlx5querymacaddress() queries the hardware which involves mlx5cmdexec() that can sleep, but it is called from the mlx5eipsechandleevent workqueue which runs in atomic context.
The MAC address is already available in netdev->dev_addr, so no need to query hardware. This avoids the sleeping call and resolves the bug.
