Series number 2 in the effort to hold the devlink instance lock
in call driver callbacks. We have the following drivers using
this API:

 - bnxt, nfp, netdevsim - their own locking is removed / simplified
   by this series; all of them needed a lock to protect from changes
   to the number of VFs while switching modes, now the VF config bus
   callback takes the devlink instance lock via devl_lock();
 - ice - appears not to allow changing modes while SR-IOV enabled,
   so nothing to do there;
 - liquidio - does not contain any locking;
 - octeontx2/af - is very special but at least doesn't have locking
   so doesn't get in the way either;
 - mlx5 has a wealth of locks - I chickened out and dropped the lock
   in the callbacks so that I can leave the driver be, for now.

The last one is obviously not ideal, but I would prefer to transition
the API already as it make take longer.

LMK if it's an abuse of power / I'm not thinking straight.

Jakub Kicinski (5):
  bnxt: use the devlink instance lock to protect sriov
  devlink: add explicitly locked flavor of the rate node APIs
  netdevsim: replace port_list_lock with devlink instance lock
  netdevsim: replace vfs_lock with devlink instance lock
  devlink: hold the instance lock during eswitch_mode callbacks
