Subject: net/mlx5: Fix health error state handling
Patch-mainline: v5.12-rc1
Git-commit: 51d138c2610a236c1ed0059d034ee4c74f452b86
References: bsc#1186467

Currently, when we discover a fatal error, we are queueing a work that
will wait for a lock in order to enter the device to error state.
Meanwhile, FW commands are still being processed, and gets timeouts.
This can block the driver for few minutes before the work will manage
to get the lock and enter to error state.

Setting the device to error state before queueing health work, in order
to avoid FW commands being processed while the work is waiting for the
lock.
