eql: use __dev_get_by_name instead of dev_get_by_name to find interface
The following call chain indicates that eql_ioctl(), eql_enslave(), eql_emancipate(), eql_g_slave_cfg() and eql_s_slave_cfg() are protected under rtnl_lock. So if we use __dev_get_by_name() instead of dev_get_by_name() to find interface handlers in them, this would help us avoid to change interface reference counters. dev_ioctl() rtnl_lock() dev_ifsioc() eql_ioctl() eql_enslave() eql_emancipate() eql_g_slave_cfg() eql_s_slave_cfg() rtnl_unlock() Additionally we also change their return values from -EINVAL to -ENODEV in case that interfaces are no found.
