RDMA/mlx5: Track netdev to avoid deadlock during netdev notifier unregister
When removing a network namespace with mlx5 devlink instance being in
it, following callchain is performed:
cleanup_net (takes down_read(&pernet_ops_rwsem)
devlink_pernet_pre_exit()
devlink_reload()
mlx5_devlink_reload_down()
mlx5_unload_one_devl_locked()
mlx5_detach_device()
del_adev()
mlx5r_remove()
__mlx5_ib_remove()
mlx5_ib_roce_cleanup()
mlx5_remove_netdev_notifier()
unregister_netdevice_notifier (takes down_write(&pernet_ops_rwsem)
This deadlocks.
Resolve this by converting to register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net()
which does not take pernet_ops_rwsem and moves the notifier block around
according to netdev it takes as arg.
Use previously introduced netdev added/removed events to track uplink
netdev to be used for register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net() purposes.
