devlink_ops pointer is not constant at this stage, so why can't I copy
reload_* pointers to the "main" devlink ops?

I wanted to avoid to copy all pointers.  

Hm. I must be missing a key piece here. IIUC you want to have different
ops based on some device property. But there is only one

static struct devlink_ops mlx5_devlink_ops;

so how can two devlink instances in the system use that and have
different ops without a copy?  

No, I have two:
* Base ops - mlx5_devlink_ops
* Extra reload commands - mlx5_devlink_reload

Still those are global for the driver, no?

What if you have multiple NICs or whatever.
