virtio_net: Fix recursive call to cpus_read_lock()
virtnet_set_channels can recursively call cpus_read_lock if CONFIG_XPS and CONFIG_HOTPLUG are enabled. The path is: virtnet_set_channels - calls get_online_cpus(), which is a trivial wrapper around cpus_read_lock() netif_set_real_num_tx_queues netif_reset_xps_queues_gt netif_reset_xps_queues - calls cpus_read_lock() This call chain and potential deadlock happens when the number of TX queues is reduced. This commit the removes netif_set_real_num_[tr]x_queues calls from inside the get/put_online_cpus section, as they don't require that it be held.
