net/mlx5: Skip mlx5_unload_one if mlx5_load_one fails

There is an issue where the firmware fails during mlx5_load_one,
the health_care timer detects the issue and schedules a health_care call.
Then the mlx5_load_one detects the issue, cleans up and quits. Then
the health_care starts and calls mlx5_unload_one to clean up the resources
that no longer exist and causes kernel panic.

The root cause is that the bit MLX5_INTERFACE_STATE_DOWN is not set
after mlx5_load_one fails. The solution is removing the bit
MLX5_INTERFACE_STATE_DOWN and quit mlx5_unload_one if the
bit MLX5_INTERFACE_STATE_UP is not set. The bit MLX5_INTERFACE_STATE_DOWN
is redundant and we can use MLX5_INTERFACE_STATE_UP instead.
