A typo? Series?
For the title, either 'multi-probing' or 'multiple probing'.
And I suggest
net/mlx5: allow multiple probing for representor
And I have only nitpickings below ;-)

Better to put a period (.), if it is a sentence.

How about,
/* Check if the device is already spawned. */
"return NULL" is so obvious from the code.

Semantically, shouldn't it be EEXIST and add the condition in probe()?

I meant this to be,
if (rte_errno != EBUSY && rte_errno != EEXIST)
