Jiri Pirko 7d7e9169a3 devlink: move devlink reload notifications back in between _down() and _up() calls
This effectively reverts commit 05a7f4a8df ("devlink: Break parameter
notification sequence to be before/after unload/load driver").

Cited commit resolved a problem in mlx5 params implementation,
when param notification code accessed memory previously freed
during reload.

Now, when the params can be registered and unregistered when devlink
instance is registered, mlx5 code unregisters the problematic param
during devlink reload. The fix is therefore no longer needed.

Current behavior is a it problematic, as it sends DEL notifications even
in potential case when reload_down() call fails which might confuse
userspace notifications listener.

So move the reload notifications back where they were originally in
between reload_down() and reload_up() calls.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
