devlink: Fix list access without lock while reading region
While finding the devlink device during region reading, devlink device list is accessed and devlink device is returned without holding a lock. This could lead to use-after-free accesses. While at it, add lockdep assert to ensure that all future callers hold the lock when calling devlink_get_from_attrs().
