We decided the best approach was to revert the break patch which is now
done in 5.15.y upstream:

commit f1607e13ed715f3b6433361f8ea5d4aa79f03b94
Author: dann frazier <dann.fraz...@canonical.com>
Date:   Thu Apr 7 14:16:42 2022 -0600

    Revert "net/mlx5: Accept devlink user input after driver
initialization complete"

Which was released in v5.15.34, and is being tracked for jammy inclusion
in bug 1969107.
