MDIO_MASTER operation have a dedicated busy wait that is not protected by the mdio mutex. This can cause situation where the MASTER operation is done and a normal operation is executed between the MASTER read/write and the MASTER busy_wait. Rework the qca8k_mdio_read/write function to address this issue by binding the lock for the whole MASTER operation and not only the mdio read/write common operation.

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.
