net: ethtool: don't take rtnl_lock for global string dump

ETHTOOL_MSG_STRSET_GET is the only op which sets allow_nodev_do.
When no device is provided it dumps static tables, there's no
need to hold rtnl_lock for this.

Not taking rtnl_lock is a minor win in itself so I think this
patch stands on its own merits. Later on it will be useful
to do locking only in paths which have access to a netdev,
so that we can decide which locks to take per-netdev.
