Merge branch 'fix-rtnl_mutex-deadlock-with-dpaa2-and-sfp-modules'

Vladimir Oltean says:

====================
Fix rtnl_mutex deadlock with DPAA2 and SFP modules

This patch set deliberately targets net-next and lacks Fixes: tags due
to caution on my part.

While testing some SFP modules on the Solidrun Honeycomb LX2K platform,
I noticed that rebooting causes a deadlock:

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.1.0-rc5-07010-ga9b9500ffaac-dirty #656 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
systemd-shutdow/1 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffa62db6cf42f0 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: rtnl_lock+0x1c/0x30

but task is already holding lock:
ffffa62db6cf42f0 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: rtnl_lock+0x1c/0x30

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

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(rtnl_mutex);
  lock(rtnl_mutex);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

But fixing this appears to be not so simple. The patch set represents my
attempt to address it.

In short, the problem is that dpaa2_mac_connect() and dpaa2_mac_disconnect()
call 2 phylink functions in a row, one takes rtnl_lock() itself -
phylink_create(), and one which requires rtnl_lock() to be held by the
caller - phylink_fwnode_phy_connect(). The existing approach in the
drivers is too simple. We take rtnl_lock() when calling dpaa2_mac_connect(),
which is what results in the deadlock.

Fixing just that creates another problem. The drivers make use of
rtnl_lock() for serializing with other code paths too. I think I've
found all those code paths, and established other mechanisms for
serializing with them.
