mlx5_intf_lock is used to sync between LAG changes and its slaves mlx5 core dev aux devices changes, which means every time mlx5 core dev add/remove aux devices, mlx5 is taking this global lock, even if LAG functionality isn't supported over the core dev. This cause a bottleneck when probing VFs/SFs in parallel. Hence, replace mlx5_intf_lock with HCA devcom component lock, or no lock if LAG functionality isn't supported.

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.
