minor nit: possibly use ASSERT_DEVLINK_REGISTERED(devlink) above?

Minor nit: this is the only statement using this order, perhaps swap
the tests for consistency?

Also possibly add the devlink_nl_notify_need() check in
devl_is_registered to reduce code duplication? plus a
__devl_is_registered() variant for the 2 cases above not requiring the
additional check.

No need to repost for the above.

Cheers,

Paolo
