net/mlx5: Devcom, serialize devcom registration

commit 1f893f57 upstream.

From one hand, mlx5 driver is allowing to probe PFs in parallel.
From the other hand, devcom, which is a share resource between PFs, is
registered without any lock. This might resulted in memory problems.

Hence, use the global mlx5_dev_list_lock in order to serialize devcom
registration.

Fixes: fadd59fc
