    net/mlx5: fix spurious CPU wakeups caused by invalid CQE
    
    Previously, the PMD used a common monitor callback to determine
    CQE ownership for power-aware polling. However, when a CQE contained
    an invalid opcode(MLX5_CQE_INVALID), ownership bit was not reliable.
    As a result, the monitor condition could falsely indicate CQE
    availability and cause the CPU to wake up unnecessarily during
    low traffic periods.
    
    This resulted in spurious wakeups in monitor-wait mode and reduced
    the expected power savings, as cores exited the sleep state even
    when no valid CQEs were available.
    
    This patch introduces a dedicated callback that skips invalid CQEs
    and optimizes power efficiency by preventing false wakeups caused
    by hardware-owned or invalid entries.

    v2:
     - Updated CQE opcode check logic — replaced XOR with comparison
     - Renamed variable match to sw_owned for clarity
     - Updated CQE ownership check order
