When we moved to updating representors from a workqueue grabbing
the RTNL somehow got lost in the process. Restore it, and make
sure RCU lock is not held while we are grabbing the RTNL. RCU
protects the representor table, so since we will be under RTNL
we can drop RCU lock as soon as we find the netdev pointer.
RTNL is needed for the dev_set_mtu() call.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
