[SRU][F][PATCH] devlink: Fix use-after-free after a failed reload

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch at nvidia.com>

After a failed devlink reload, devlink parameters are still registered,
which means user space can set and get their values. In the case of the
mlxsw "acl_region_rehash_interval" parameter, these operations will
trigger a use-after-free [1].

Fix this by rejecting set and get operations while in the failed state.
Return the "-EOPNOTSUPP" error code which does not abort the parameters
dump, but instead causes it to skip over the problematic parameter.

Another possible fix is to perform these checks in the mlxsw parameter
callbacks, but other drivers might be affected by the same problem and I
am not aware of scenarios where these stricter checks will cause a
regression.
