Stanislav Fomichev 3cbd229388 net: warn ops-locked drivers still using ndo_set_rx_mode
Now that all in-tree ops-locked drivers have been converted to
ndo_set_rx_mode_async, add a warning in register_netdevice to catch
any remaining or newly added drivers that use ndo_set_rx_mode with
ops locking. This ensures future driver authors are guided toward
the async path.

Also route ops-locked devices through netdev_rx_mode_work even if they
lack rx_mode NDOs, to ensure netdev_ops_assert_locked() does not fire
on the legacy path where only RTNL is held.
