devlink: allow to call devl_param_driverinit_value_get() without holding instance lock

If the driver maintains following basic sane behavior, the
devl_param_driverinit_value_get() function could be called without
holding instance lock:

1) Driver ensures a call to devl_param_driverinit_value_get() cannot
   race with registering/unregistering the parameter with
   the same parameter ID.
2) Driver ensures a call to devl_param_driverinit_value_get() cannot
   race with devl_param_driverinit_value_set() call with
   the same parameter ID.
3) Driver ensures a call to devl_param_driverinit_value_get() cannot
   race with reload operation.

By the nature of params usage, these requirements should be
trivially achievable. If the driver for some off reason
is not able to comply, it has to take the devlink->lock while
calling devl_param_driverinit_value_get().

Remove the lock assertion and add comment describing
the locking requirements.

This fixes a splat in mlx5 driver introduced by the commit
referenced in the "Fixes" tag.
