sfc: Take mac_lock before calling efx_ef10_filter_table_probe
When trying to enslave an SFC interface to a bond the following BUG_ON was
hit:
kernel BUG [in ef10.c]!
CPU: 0 PID: 4383 Comm: ifenslave Tainted: G
...
Call Trace:
efx_ef10_filter_add_vlan+0x121/0x180 [sfc]
efx_ef10_filter_table_probe+0x2a2/0x4f0 [sfc]
efx_ef10_set_mac_address+0x370/0x6d0 [sfc]
efx_set_mac_address+0x7d/0x120 [sfc]
dev_set_mac_address+0x43/0xa0
bond_enslave+0x337/0xea0 [bonding]
This comes from function efx_ef10_filter_vlan_sync_rx_mode.
To solve the bug we ensure the mac_lock is taken before calling
efx_ef10_filter_add_vlan. But to avoid a priority inversion mac_lock must
be taken before filter_sem.
To satisfy these requirements we end up taking mac_lock in
efx_ef10_vport_set_mac_address, efx_ef10_set_mac_address,
efx_ef10_sriov_set_vf_vlan and efx_probe_filters.
