Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

Protect all ethtool callbacks and PHY related state with the netdev
instance lock, for drivers which want / need to have their ops
instance-locked. Basically take the lock everywhere we take rtnl_lock.
It was tempting to take the lock in ethnl_ops_begin(), but turns
out we actually nest those calls (when generating notifications).

In the CMIS specification for pluggable modules, LPL (Local Payload) and
EPL (Extended Payload) are two types of data payloads used for managing
various functions and features of the module.
EPL payloads are used for more complex and extensive management
functions that require a larger amount of data, so writing firmware
blocks using EPL is much more efficient.
Currently, only LPL payload is supported for writing firmware blocks to
the module.
Add support for writing firmware block using EPL payload, both to
support modules that supports only EPL write mechanism, and to optimize
the flashing process of modules that support LPL and EPL.

Add EPL related parameters to the function ethtool_cmis_cdb_compose_args()
and add a specific function for calculating the maximum allowable length
extension for EPL. Both will be used in the next patch to add support for
writing firmware blocks using EPL.

CMIS 5.2 standard section 9.4.2 defines four types of firmware update
supported mechanism: None, only LPL, only EPL, both LPL and EPL.
Currently, only LPL (Local Payload) type of write firmware block is
supported. However, if the module supports both LPL and EPL the flashing
process wrongly fails for no supporting LPL.
Fix that, by allowing the write mechanism to be LPL or both LPL and
EPL.

According to the CMIS standard, the firmware update process is done using
a CDB commands sequence.
Implement a work that will be triggered from the module layer in the
next patch the will initiate and execute all the CDB commands in order, to
eventually complete the firmware update process.
This flashing process includes, writing the firmware image, running the new
firmware image and committing it after testing, so that it will run upon
reset.
This work will also notify user space about the progress of the firmware
update process.
