devlink: Rework devlink health reporter destructor
Devlink keeps its own reference to every reporter in a list and inits refcount to 1 upon reporter's creation. Existing destructor waits to free the memory indefinitely using msleep() until all references except devlink's own are put. Rework this mechanism by moving memory free routine to a separate function, which is called when the last reporter reference is put. Besides, it allows to call __devlink_health_reporter_destroy() while locked on a reporters list mutex in symmetry to __devlink_health_reporter_create(), which is required in follow-up patch.
