Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc7
Subject: hv_netvsc: fix locking for rx_mode
Git-commit: 35a57b7fef136fa3d5b735ba773f191b95110fa0
References: fate#323887

The rx_mode operation handler is different than other callbacks
in that is not always called with rtnl held. Therefore use
RCU to ensure that references are valid.

Fixes: bee9d41b37ea ("hv_netvsc: propagate rx filters to VF")
