Not sure we can do this unconditionally. Since we still have plenty of
drivers that might not use netdev instance lock (yet). Probably should
be something like the following?

if (netdev_need_ops_lock(params->netdev))
	netdev_assert_locked(params->netdev);
else
	ASSERT_RTNL();

?

We should probably wait for https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20250312223507.805719-11-kuba@kernel.org/T/#m2053ac617759a9005806e56a7df97c378b76ec77
to land and use netdev_ops_assert_locked instead?
