mlxsw: core: Register devlink instance before sub-objects
Recent changes made it possible to register the devlink instance before its sub-objects and under the instance lock. Among other things, it allows us to avoid warnings such as this one [1]. The warning is generated because a buggy firmware is generating a health event during driver initialization, before the devlink instance is registered. Move the registration of the devlink instance to the beginning of the initialization flow to avoid such problems. A similar change was implemented in netdevsim in commit 82a3aef2 ("netdevsim: move devlink registration under the instance lock").
