The function mlx5_esw_devlink_sf_port_register() calls devlink_port_register() and devlink_rate_leaf_create(). Use devl_ API to call devl_port_register() and devl_rate_leaf_create() accordingly and add devlink instance lock in driver paths to this function. Similarly, use devl_ API to call devl_port_unregister() and devl_rate_leaf_destroy() in mlx5_esw_devlink_sf_port_unregister() and ensure locking devlink instance lock on all the paths to this function too. This will be used by the downstream patch to invoke mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() with devlink lock held. Note this patch is taking devlink lock on mlx5_devlink_sf_port_new/del() which are devlink callbacks for port_new/del(). We will take these locks off once these callbacks will be locked by devlink too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
