Subject: [PATCH] eth: alx: take rtnl_lock on resume
Git-commit: 6ad1c94e1e7e374d88f0cfd77936dddb8339aaba
Patch-mainline: v6.1-rc1
References: git-fixes

Zbynek reports that alx trips an rtnl assertion on resume:

 RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (2891)
 RIP: 0010:netif_set_real_num_tx_queues+0x1ac/0x1c0
 Call Trace:
  <TASK>
  __alx_open+0x230/0x570 [alx]

indeed the driver does not hold rtnl_lock during its internal close
and re-open functions during suspend/resume. Note that this is not
a huge bug as the driver implements its own locking, and does not
implement changing the number of queues, but we need to silence
the splat.

Fixes: 4a5fe57e7751 ("alx: use fine-grained locking instead of RTNL")
