[PATCH net v1] devlink: Don't throw an error if flash notification sent before devlink visible

From: Leon Romanovsky <leon@kernel.org>

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

The mlxsw driver calls to various devlink flash routines even before
users can get any access to the devlink instance itself. For example,
mlxsw_core_fw_rev_validate() one of such functions.

__mlxsw_core_bus_device_register
 -> mlxsw_core_fw_rev_validate
  -> mlxsw_core_fw_flash
   -> mlxfw_firmware_flash
    -> mlxfw_status_notify
     -> devlink_flash_update_status_notify
      -> __devlink_flash_update_notify
       -> WARN_ON(...)

It causes to the WARN_ON to trigger warning about devlink not registered.

Fixes: cf530217408e ("devlink: Notify users when objects are accessible")

v1:
 * Used Jakub's suggestion to silently drop flash notifications if
   devlink is not visible yet.
