i3c: Use i3cdev->desc->info instead of calling i3c_device_get_info() to avoid deadlock

A deadlock may happen since the i3c_master_register() acquires
&i3cbus->lock twice. See the log below.
Use i3cdev->desc->info instead of calling i3c_device_info() to
avoid acquiring the lock twice.

- Modified the title and commit message

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.11.0-mainline
--------------------------------------------
init/1 is trying to acquire lock:
f1ffff80a6a40dc0 (&i3cbus->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: i3c_bus_normaluse_lock

but task is already holding lock:
f1ffff80a6a40dc0 (&i3cbus->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: i3c_master_register

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0
----
lock(&i3cbus->lock);
lock(&i3cbus->lock);

*** DEADLOCK ***

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

2 locks held by init/1:
