netvsc: fix rcu dereference warning from ethtool
The ethtool info command calls the netvsc get_sset_count with RTNL but not with RCU. Which causes warning: drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc_drv.c:1010 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage! Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
