net and vdpa code expect the common code being initialised.
It is a dependency internal to mlx5 drivers, I see nothing generic.

The common driver can provide a init function called by net and vdpa
drivers in constructor context (not that I like calling complex init,
but it should be equivalent to current state).
It expresses a clear dependency and there is no constructor semantic
to invent, nor runtime breakage possible because someone tweaks the
priority order in the future.

There is also some hack about a haswell/broadwell detection in LOG
priority that makes no sense.

I compile-tested following:
