Subject: IB/ipoib: Grab rtnl lock on heavy flush when calling ndo_open/stop
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
Git-commit: b4b678b06f6eef18bff44a338c01870234db0bc9
References: bsc#1075020
When ndo_open and ndo_stop are called RTNL lock should be held.
In this specific case ipoib_ib_dev_open calls the offloaded ndo_open
which re-sets the number of TX queue assuming RTNL lock is held.
Since RTNL lock is not held, RTNL assert will fail.
