I think you may be expecting us to take Johannes's patch.
It's still on the table, but to make things clear -
upstream we prefer to wait for the "real fix", so if we agree
that fixing igb/igc is a better way (as Heiner pointed out on previous
version PM functions are called by the stack under rtnl elsewhere too,
just not while device is open) - we'll wait for that. Especially
that I'm 80% I complained about the PM in those drivers in
the past and nobody seemed to care. It's a constant source of rtnl
deadlocks.
