net: devlink: take RTNL in port_fill() function only if it is not held
[ Upstream commit d41c9dbd12745cfc1cb2946cd99016d83c2c5364 ]
Follow-up patch is going to introduce a netdevice notifier event
processing which is called with RTNL mutex held. Processing of this will
eventually lead to call to port_notity() and port_fill() which currently
takes RTNL mutex internally. So as a temporary solution, propagate a
bool indicating if the mutex is already held. This will go away in one
of the follow-up patches.
