As part of the flows invoked by mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() get to mlx5_rescan_drivers_locked() which can call mlx5e_probe()/mlx5e_remove and register/unregister mlx5e driver ports accordingly. This can lead to deadlock once mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() will use devlink lock. Use devl_port_register/unregister() instead of devlink_port_register/unregister() and add devlink instance locks in the driver paths to this function to have it locked while calling devl_ API function. If remove or probe were called by module init or module cleanup flows, need to lock devlink just before calling devl_port_register(), otherwise it is called by attach/detach or register/unregister flow and we can have the flow locked. Added flag to distinguish between these cases. This will be used by the downstream patch to invoke mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() with devlink locked.
