devlink: Fix crash with CONFIG_NET_NS=n

[ Upstream commit d6352dae0903fe8beae4c007dc320e9e9f1fed45 ]

'__net_initdata' becomes a no-op with CONFIG_NET_NS=y, but when this
option is disabled it becomes '__initdata', which means the data can be
freed after the initialization phase. This annotation is obviously
incorrect for the devlink net device notifier block which is still
registered after the initialization phase [1].

Fix this crash by removing the '__net_initdata' annotation.
