[PATCH net] net: do not acquire dev->tx_global_lock in netdev_watchdog_up()

[Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>]

Marek Szyprowski reported a deadlock during system resume when virtio_net
driver is used.

The deadlock occurs because netif_device_attach() is called while holding
dev->tx_global_lock (via netif_tx_lock_bh() in virtnet_restore_up()).
netif_device_attach() calls __netdev_watchdog_up(), which now also tries
to acquire dev->tx_global_lock to synchronize with dev_watchdog().

This recursive lock acquisition results in a deadlock.

Fix this by removing the tx_global_lock acquisition from netdev_watchdog_up().

The critical state (watchdog_timer and watchdog_ref_held) is already
protected by dev->watchdog_lock, which was introduced in the blamed commit.

Fixes: 8eed5519e496 ("net: watchdog: fix refcount tracking races")
