[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: initialize netdev->lock on dummy devices

[Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>]

Make sure netdev->lock is always valid, even on dummy netdevs.

Apparently it's legal to call mutex_destroy() on an uninitialized
mutex (and we do that in free_netdev()), but it doesn't seem right.
Plus we'll soon want to take netdev->lock on more paths which dummy
netdevs may reach.
