[v3 PATCH net] net: enetc: fix the deadlock of enetc_mdio_lock

[Jianpeng Chang <jianpeng.chang.cn@windriver.com>]

After applying the workaround for err050089, the LS1028A platform
experiences RCU stalls on RT kernel. This issue is caused by the
recursive acquisition of the read lock enetc_mdio_lock. Here list some
of the call stacks identified under the enetc_poll path that may lead to
a deadlock:

enetc_poll
  -> enetc_lock_mdio
  -> enetc_clean_rx_ring OR napi_complete_done
     -> napi_gro_receive
        -> enetc_start_xmit
           -> enetc_lock_mdio
           -> enetc_map_tx_buffs
           -> enetc_unlock_mdio
  -> enetc_unlock_mdio

After enetc_poll acquires the read lock, a higher-priority writer attempts
to acquire the lock, causing preemption. The writer detects that a
read lock is already held and is scheduled out. However, readers under
enetc_poll cannot acquire the read lock again because a writer is already
waiting, leading to a thread hang.

Currently, the deadlock is avoided by adjusting enetc_lock_mdio to prevent
recursive lock acquisition.

Fixes: 6d36ecdbc441 ("net: enetc: take the MDIO lock only once per NAPI poll cycle")
