Following commit 7ba5320baa32 ("net/mlx5: fix link status behavior")
The initial link status is no longer set as part of the port start.
When LSC interrupts are enabled, ethdev layer reads the link status
directly from the device data instead of using the PMD callback.
This may cause application to query the link as down while in fact it was
already up before the DPDK application start (and no interrupt to fix
it).
