net/mlx5e: Create auxdev devlink instance in the same ns as parent devlink

Commit cited in "fixes" tag moved the devlink port under separate
devlink entity created for auxiliary device. Respect the network
namespace of parent devlink entity and allocate the devlink there.

net/mlx5e: Move dl_port to struct mlx5e_dev

No need to have dl_port which is tightly coupled with mlx5e code
in mlx5 core code. Move it to struct mlx5e_dev and loose
mlx5e_devlink_get_dl_port() helper.

net/mlx5e: Pass mdev to mlx5e_devlink_port_register()

Instead of accessing priv->mdev, pass mdev pointer to
mlx5e_devlink_port_register() and access it directly.

net/mlx5e: Create separate devlink instance for ethernet auxiliary device

The fact that devlink instance lock is held over mlx5 auxiliary devices
probe and remove routines brought a need to conditionally take devlink
instance lock there. The code is checking a MLX5E_LOCKED_FLOW flag
in mlx5 priv struct.

This is racy and may lead to access devlink objects without holding
instance lock or deadlock.

To avoid this, the only lock-wise sane solution is to make the
devlink entities created by the auxiliary device independent on
the original pci devlink instance. Create devlink instance for the
auxiliary device and put the uplink port instance there alongside with
the port health reporters.

net: make drivers to use SET_NETDEV_DEVLINK_PORT to set devlink_port

Benefit from the previously implemented tracking of netdev events in
devlink code and instead of calling devlink_port_type_eth_set() and
devlink_port_type_clear() to set devlink port type and link to related
netdev, use SET_NETDEV_DEVLINK_PORT() macro to assign devlink_port
pointer to netdevice which is about to be registered.

net/mlx5: Move devlink port from mlx5e priv to mlx5e resources

We re-use the native NIC port net device instance for the Uplink
representor, and the devlink port.
When changing profiles we reset the mlx5e priv but we should still
use the devlink port so move it to mlx5e resources.

net/mlx5e: Fix devlink port register sequence

If udevd is configured to rename interfaces according to persistent
naming rules and if a network interface has phys_port_name in sysfs,
its contents will be appended to the interface name.
However, register_netdev creates device in sysfs and if
devlink_port_register is called after that, there is a timeframe in
which udevd may read an empty phys_port_name value. The consequence is
that the interface will lose this suffix and its name will not be
really persistent.

The solution is to register the port before registering a netdev.
