nfp: fix potential deadlock when canceling dim work
When port is linked down, the process which has acquired rtnl_lock will wait for the in-progress dim work to finish, and the work also acquires rtnl_lock, which may cause deadlock. Currently IRQ_MOD registers can be configured by `ethtool -C` and dim work, and which will take effect depends on the execution order, rtnl_lock is useless here, so remove them.

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 Restructured Text 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.
