net: mscc: ocelot: be able to reuse a devlink_port after teardown



There are cases where we would like to continue probing the switch even
if one port has failed to probe. When that happens, we need to
unregister a devlink_port of type DEVLINK_PORT_FLAVOUR_PHYSICAL and
re-register it of type DEVLINK_PORT_FLAVOUR_UNUSED.

This is fine, except when calling devlink_port_attrs_set on a structure
on which devlink_port_register has been previously called, there is a
WARN_ON in devlink_port_attrs_set that devlink_port->devlink must be
NULL.

So don't assume that the memory behind dlp is clean when calling
ocelot_port_devlink_init, just zero-initialize it.
