vdpa/mlx5: Keep notifiers during suspend but ignore

Unregistering notifiers is a costly operation. Instead of removing
the notifiers during device suspend and adding them back at resume,
simply ignore the call when the device is suspended.

At resume time call queue_link_work() to make sure that the device state
is propagated in case there were changes.

For 1 vDPA device x 32 VQs (16 VQPs) attached to a large VM (256 GB RAM,
32 CPUs x 2 threads per core), the device suspend time is reduced from
~13 ms to ~2.5 ms.
