net: phylink: fix ethtool -A with attached PHYs
Fix a phylink's ethtool set_pauseparam support deadlock caused by phylib interacting with phylink: we must not hold the state lock while calling phylib functions that may call into phylink_phy_change(). Fixes: f904f15ea9b5 ("net: phylink: allow ethtool -A to change flow control advertisement") Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>
