mlx5: Create an auxiliary device for fwctl_mlx5

Browse Source 
If the device supports User Context then it can support fwctl. Create an
auxiliary device to allow fwctl to bind to it.

Create a sysfs like:

$ ls /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0a.0/mlx5_core.fwctl.0/driver -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Apr 25 19:46 /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0a.0/mlx5_core.fwctl.0/driver -> ../../../../bus/auxiliary/drivers/mlx5_fwctl.mlx5_fwctl
