The current scheme relies heavily on the RTNL lock for all ULP operations between the L2 and the RoCE driver. Add a new en_dev_lock mutex so that the asynchronous ULP_STOP and ULP_START operations can be serialized with bnxt_register_dev() and bnxt_unregister_dev() calls without relying on the RTNL lock. The next patch will remove the RTNL lock from the ULP_STOP and ULP_START calls.

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.
