Parav Pandit 60904cd349 net/mlx5: Disable reload while removing the device
While unregistration is in progress, user might be reloading the
interface.
This can race with unregistration in below flow which uses the
resources which are getting disabled by reload flow.

Hence, disable the devlink reloading first when removing the device.

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.
