Devlink used to have two global locks: devlink lock and port lock,
our lock ordering looked like this:
devlink lock -> driver's pf->lock -> devlink port lock
After recent changes port lock was replaced with per-instance
lock. Unfortunately, new per-instance lock is taken on most
operations now. This means we can only grab the pf->lock from
the port split/unsplit ops. Lock ordering looks like this:
devlink lock -> driver's pf->lock -> devlink instance lock
Since we can't take pf->lock from most devlink ops, make sure
nfp_apps are prepared to service them as soon as devlink is
registered. Locking the pf must be pushed down after
nfp_app_init() callback.
The init order looks like this:
nfp_app_init
devlink_register
nfp_app_start
netdev/port_register
As soon as app_init is done nfp_apps must be ready to service
devlink-related callbacks. apps can only register their own
devlink objects from nfp_app_start.
