Devlink instance lifecycle was linked to qed_dev object, that caused devlink to be recreated on each recovery. Changing it by making higher level driver (qede) responsible for its life. This way devlink now survives recoveries. qede now stores devlink structure pointer as a part of its device object, devlink private data contains a linkage structure, qed_devlink.

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.
