e1000_down calls netif_queue_set_napi, which assumes that RTNL is held.

There are a few paths for e1000_down to be called in e1000 where RTNL is
not currently being held:
  - e1000_shutdown (pci shutdown)
  - e1000_suspend (power management)
  - e1000_reinit_locked (via e1000_reset_task delayed work)

Hold RTNL in two places to fix this issue:
  - e1000_reset_task
  - __e1000_shutdown (which is called from both e1000_shutdown and
    e1000_suspend).

The other paths which call e1000_down seemingly hold RTNL and are OK:
  - e1000_close (ndo_stop)
  - e1000_change_mtu (ndo_change_mtu)

I'm submitting this is as an RFC because:
  - the e1000_reinit_locked issue appears very similar to commit
    21f857f0321d ("e1000e: add rtnl_lock() to e1000_reset_task"), which
    fixes a similar issue in e1000e

however

  - adding rtnl to e1000_reinit_locked seemingly conflicts with an
    earlier e1000 commit b2f963bfaeba ("e1000: fix lockdep warning in
    e1000_reset_task").

Hopefully Intel can weigh in and shed some light on the correct way to
go.
