mlxsw: spectrum_router: Simplify VRF enslavement
When a netdev is enslaved to a VRF master, its router interface (RIF)
needs to be destroyed (if exists) and a new one created using the
corresponding virtual router (VR).
>From the driver's perspective, the above is equivalent to an inetaddr
event sent for this netdev. Therefore, when a port netdev (or its
uppers) are enslaved to a VRF master, call the same function that
would've been called had a NETDEV_UP was sent for this netdev in the
inetaddr notification chain.
This patch also fixes a bug when a LAG netdev with an existing RIF is
enslaved to a VRF. Before this patch, each LAG port would drop the
reference on the RIF, but would re-join the same one (in the wrong VR)
soon after. With this patch, the corresponding RIF is first destroyed
and a new one is created using the correct VR.
