    Fix - os-vif fails to get the correct UpLink Representor

    Till kernel 5.7 PF and VF representors are exposed as virtual device.
    They are not linked to its parent PCI device like how uplink
    representor is linked.

    Starting from kernel 5.8 due to new change [1] the PF and VF representors are
    linked to their parent PCI device, and so "get_ifname_by_pci_address" fails
    to get the correct UpLink Representor.

    This patch modifys the behviour of "get_ifname_by_pci_address" to
    check the physical port name of the netdev in
    vf_pci_addr_path/physfn/net to match the formart for the uplink "p\d+".
