net: hold netdev instance lock during ndo_open/ndo_stop
For the drivers that use shaper API, switch to the mode where core stack holds the netdev lock. This affects two drivers: * iavf - already grabs netdev lock in ndo_open/ndo_stop, so mostly remove these * netdevsim - switch to _locked APIs to avoid deadlock iavf_close diff is a bit confusing, the existing call looks like this: iavf_close() { netdev_lock() .. netdev_unlock() wait_event_timeout(down_waitqueue) } I change it to the following: netdev_lock() iavf_close() { .. netdev_unlock() wait_event_timeout(down_waitqueue) netdev_lock() // reusing this lock call } netdev_unlock() Since I'm reusing existing netdev_lock call, so it looks like I only add netdev_unlock.
