[PATCH net mlxsw 2/2] mlxsw: spectrum_switchdev: Fix port_vlan refcounting

Switchdev notifications for addition of SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN are
distributed not only on clean addition, but also when flags on an
existing VLAN are changed. Thus it is wrong to look up the corresponding
port_vlan object by calling mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_get(), which bumps
reference of a preexisting port_vlan. This leads to reference counting
discrepancy, which triggers a warning in mlxsw_sp_port_remove on mlxsw
unload.

Fix by replacing the problematic call with a combination of calls to
mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_find_by_vid() and mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_create().

Fixes: c57529e1d5d8 ("mlxsw: spectrum: Replace vPorts with Port-VLAN")
