Joe DamatoandTony Nguyen e400c7444d e1000: Hold RTNL when e1000_down can be called
e1000_down calls netif_queue_set_napi, which assumes that RTNL is held.

There are a few paths for e1000_down to be called in e1000 where RTNL is
not currently being held:
  - e1000_shutdown (pci shutdown)
  - e1000_suspend (power management)
  - e1000_reinit_locked (via e1000_reset_task delayed work)
  - e1000_io_error_detected (via pci error handler)

Hold RTNL in three places to fix this issue:
  - e1000_reset_task: igc, igb, and e100e all hold rtnl in this path.
  - e1000_io_error_detected (pci error handler): e1000e and ixgbe hold
    rtnl in this path. A patch has been posted for igc to do the same
    [1].
  - __e1000_shutdown (which is called from both e1000_shutdown and
    e1000_suspend): igb, ixgbe, and e1000e all hold rtnl in the same
    path.

The other paths which call e1000_down seemingly hold RTNL and are OK:
  - e1000_close (ndo_stop)
  - e1000_change_mtu (ndo_change_mtu)

Based on the above analysis and mailing list discussion [2], I believe
adding rtnl in the three places mentioned above is correct.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
