Subject: [RFC net-next 00/10] devlink: remove the wait-for-references on unregister

This set is on top of the previous RFC.

Move the registration and unregistration of the devlink instances
under their instance locks. Don't perform the netdev-style wait
for all references when unregistering the instance.

Jakub Kicinski (10):
  devlink: bump the instance index directly when iterating
  devlink: update the code in netns move to latest helpers
  devlink: protect devlink->dev by the instance lock
  devlink: always check if the devlink instance is registered
  devlink: remove the registration guarantee of references
  devlink: don't require setting features before registration
  netdevsim: rename a label
  netdevsim: move devlink registration under the instance lock
  devlink: allow registering parameters after the instance
  netdevsim: register devlink instance before sub-objects
