Subject: dpll: fix possible deadlock during netlink dump operation
Patch-mainline: v6.8-rc5
Git-commit: 53c0441dd2c44ee93fddb5473885fd41e4bc2361
References: jsc#PED-6079 CVE-2024-26725 bsc#1222369
Recently, I've been hitting following deadlock warning during dpll pin
dump:

other info that might help us debug this:
[52804.661077] Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[52804.661671] CPU0 CPU1
[52804.662129] ---- ----
[52804.662577] lock(dpll_lock);
[52804.662924] lock(nlk_cb_mutex-GENERIC);
[52804.663538] lock(dpll_lock);
[52804.664073] lock(nlk_cb_mutex-GENERIC);
[52804.664490]
The issue as follows: __netlink_dump_start() calls control->start(cb)
with nlk->cb_mutex held. In control->start(cb) the dpll_lock is taken.
Then nlk->cb_mutex is released and taken again in netlink_dump(), while
dpll_lock still being held. That leads to ABBA deadlock when another
CPU races with the same operation.
Fix this by moving dpll_lock taking into dumpit() callback which ensures
correct lock taking order.
