I'll give examples with 20G and 200G netdevs respectively.

20G:
Before this patch, regardless of the actual number of lanes, the width and
speed displayed in ibv_devinfo would be always fixed:
active_width: 4X
active_speed: 5 Gbps
After this patch, there will be different combinations of width and speed
according to the number of lanes. For example, for a 20G netdev whose number
of lanes is 2, the width and speed displayed in ibv_devinfo will be:
active_width: 2X
active_speed: 10 Gbps

200G:
Before this patch, netdevs with netdev_speed more than 40G cannot get a right
width and speed in ibv_devinfo. Only the default result would be displayed:
active_width: 4X
active_speed: 25 Gbps
After this patch, taking an example with 4 lanes, the displayed results will be:
active_width: 4X
active_speed: 50 Gbps

I'm sorry but I didn't quite understand. Do you mean the critical section of
rtnl_lock() here should be expanded to make sure getting the right number of
lanes?
