[PATCH net] mlxsw: minimal: Fix deadlock in ports creation

From: Petr Machata
Date: Thu Aug 11 2022 - 07:24:55 EST


From: Vadim Pasternak <vadimp@xxxxxxxxxx>

Drop devl_lock() / devl_unlock() from ports creation and removal flows
since the devlink instance lock is now taken by mlxsw_core.

Fixes: 72a4c8c94efa ("mlxsw: convert driver to use unlocked devlink API during init/fini")
