[PATCH] net/mlx5: Fix L3 tunnel entropy refcount leak

From: Li RongQing <redacted>
mlx5_tun_entropy_refcount_inc() counts both VXLAN and L2-to-L3
tunnel reformat entries as entropy-enabling users. The matching
decrement path only handled VXLAN, leaving L2-to-L3 tunnel entries
counted after release.
Handle MLX5_REFORMAT_TYPE_L2_TO_L3_TUNNEL in
mlx5_tun_entropy_refcount_dec() as well so the enabling entry
refcount remains balanced.
Fixes: f828ca6a2fb6 ("net/mlx5e: Add support for hw encapsulation of MPLS over UDP")
