Subject: net/mlx5: Devcom, serialize devcom registration
From: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1f893f57a3bf9fe1f4bcb25b55aea7f7f9712fe7 upstream.
>From one hand, mlx5 driver is allowing to probe PFs in parallel.
>From the other hand, devcom, which is a share resource between PFs, is
registered without any lock. This might resulted in memory problems.
Hence, use the global mlx5_dev_list_lock in order to serialize devcom
registration.
