[SRU][Xenial/gcp][PATCH 6/11] net: allow to call netif_reset_xps_queues() under cpus_read_lock

From: Andrei Vagin <avagin at gmail.com>

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810457

The definition of static_key_slow_inc() has cpus_read_lock in place. In the
virtio_net driver, XPS queues are initialized after setting the queue:cpu
affinity in virtnet_set_affinity() which is already protected within
cpus_read_lock. Lockdep prints a warning when we are trying to acquire
cpus_read_lock when it is already held.

This patch adds an ability to call __netif_set_xps_queue under
cpus_read_lock().

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
4.18.0-rc3-next-20180703+ #1 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:
00000000cf973d46 (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: static_key_slow_inc+0xe/0x20

but task is already holding lock:
00000000cf973d46 (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: init_vqs+0x513/0x5a0

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
  lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

3 locks held by swapper/0/1:
 #0: 00000000244bc7da (&dev->mutex){....}, at: __driver_attach+0x5a/0x110
 #1: 00000000cf973d46 (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: init_vqs+0x513/0x5a0
 #2: 000000005cd8463f (xps_map_mutex){+.+.}, at: __netif_set_xps_queue+0x8d/0xc60

v2: move cpus_read_lock() out of __netif_set_xps_queue()
