net/mlx5: fix bit field compiling error

  Some old compilers and old specification will not support bit field
with other types except integer or unsigned integer.
Since the next and previous items are 64b and/or 32b aligned, bit
field with "unsigned char" type will not save any space and the
compiler will complain.
Changing it to "unsigned int" type bit field will solve the issue.

Hi Raslan,

Updating patches that has been pulled by next-net makes very hard to pull your tree.

Can you please squash only ones that are still only in the mlx tree, for others 
I can update in the next-net which is easier than resolving conflicts on merge.

Thanks,
ferruh

Sure, and that's what I usually do not sure what happened and caused a squash for some pulled patches already.
