devlink: expose get/put functions
Allow those who hold implicit reference on a devlink instance to try to take a full ref on it. This will be used from netdev code which has an implicit ref because of driver call ordering. Note that after recent changes devlink_unregister() may happen before netdev unregister, but devlink_free() should still happen after, so we are safe to try, but we can't just refcount_inc() and assume it's not zero.
