devlink: Set device as early as possible
All kernel devlink implementations call to devlink_alloc() during initialization routine for specific device which is used later as a parent device for devlink_register(). Such late device assignment causes to the situation which requires us to call to device_register() before setting other parameters, but that call opens devlink to the world and makes accessible for the netlink users. Any attempt to move devlink_register() to be the last call generates the following error due to access to the devlink->dev pointer. [ 8.758862] devlink_nl_param_fill+0x2e8/0xe50 [ 8.760305] devlink_param_notify+0x6d/0x180 [ 8.760435] __devlink_params_register+0x2f1/0x670 [ 8.760558] devlink_params_register+0x1e/0x20 The simple change of API to set devlink device in the devlink_alloc() instead of devlink_register() fixes all this above and ensures that prior to call to devlink_register() everything already set.
