Subject: [patch net-next v2 03/12] net/mlx5: Lift reload limitation when SFs are present

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@...dia.com>

Historically, the shared devlink_mutex prevented devlink instances from
being registered/unregistered during another devlink instance reload
operation. However, devlink_muxex is gone for some time now, this
limitation is no longer needed. Lift it.
