Jakub Kicinski a6882c1583 net: team: don't recurse on the port's netdev ops lock
__team_port_change_send() calls __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() on
the port, which will soon take the port's ops lock. The notifier
caller already holds it while the slave-add/del callers do not,
so the function would either deadlock or run unprotected depending
on the path.

Make __team_port_change_send() expect the port's ops lock held and
switch to netif_get_link_ksettings(). team_device_event()'s NETDEV_UP /
NETDEV_CHANGE already arrive with the port's ops lock held.
team_port_add() now take it explicitly.

Note that NETDEV_DOWN and team_port_del() will pass false as @linkup
so they will not execute netif_get_link_ksettings(). This is fortunate
as NETDEV_DOWN has somewhat mixed locking right now.
