[RFC PATCH v2 0/2] fw_devlink overlay fix

[Saravana Kannan]

Don't bother reviewing this patch. It needs to be tested and possibly
refactored first.

Geert and Herve,

This patch serious should hopefully fix both of your use cases
[1][2][3]. Can you please check to make sure the device links created
to/from the overlay devices are to/from the right ones?

I've only compile tested it. If I made some obvious mistake, feel free
to fix it and give it a shot.
