[PATCH net 2/2] net: core: split unregister_netdevice list into smaller chunks

[Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>]

Since blamed commit, unregister_netdevice_many_notify() takes the netdev
mutex if the device needs it.

This isn't a problem in itself, the problem is that the list can be
very long, so it may lock a LOT of mutexes, but lockdep engine can only
deal with MAX_LOCK_DEPTH held locks:

unshare -n bash -c 'for i in $(seq 1 100);do  ip link add foo$i type dummy;done'
BUG: MAX_LOCK_DEPTH too low!
turning off the locking correctness validator.
depth: 48  max: 48!
48 locks held by kworker/u16:1/69:
 #0: ffff8880010b7148 ((wq_completion)netns){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work+0x7ed/0x1350
 #1: ffffc900004a7d40 (net_cleanup_work){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work+0xcf3/0x1350
 #2: ffffffff8bc6fbd0 (pernet_ops_rwsem){++++}-{4:4}, at: cleanup_net+0xab/0x7f0
 #3: ffffffff8bc8daa8 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: default_device_exit_batch+0x7e/0x2e0
 #4: ffff88800b5e9cb0 (&dev_instance_lock_key#3){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: unregister_netdevice_many_notify+0x1056/0x1b00
[..]

Work around this limitation by chopping the list into smaller chunks
and process them individually for LOCKDEP enabled kernels.

Fixes: 7e4d784f5810 ("net: hold netdev instance lock during rtnetlink operations")
