devlink: move code to a dedicated directory The devlink code is hard to navigate with 13kLoC in one file. I really like the way Michal split the ethtool into per-command files and core. It'd probably be too much to split it all up, but we can at least separate the core parts out of the per-cmd implementations and put it in a directory so that new commands can be separate files. Move the code, subsequent commit will do a partial split.

devlink: introduce shared devlink instance for PFs on same chip Multiple PFs may reside on the same physical chip, running a single firmware. Some of the resources and configurations may be shared among these PFs. Currently, there is no good object to pin the configuration knobs on. Introduce a shared devlink instance, instantiated upon probe of the first PF and removed during remove of the last PF. The shared devlink instance is not backed by any device device, as there is no PCI device related to it. The implementation uses reference counting to manage the lifecycle: each PF that probes calls devlink_shd_get() to get or create the shared instance, and calls devlink_shd_put() when it removes. The shared instance is automatically destroyed when the last PF removes.
