Lifetime of some of the devlink objects, like regions, is currently forced to be different for devlink instance and devlink port instance (per-port regions). The reason is that for devlink ports, the internal structures initialization happens only after devlink_port_register() is called. To resolve this inconsistency, introduce new set of helpers to allow driver to initialize devlink pointer and region list before devlink_register() is called. That allows port regions to be created before devlink port registration and destroyed after devlink port unregistration.
