net: hold instance lock during NETDEV_CHANGE
Cosmin reports an issue with ipv6_add_dev being called from
NETDEV_CHANGE notifier:
[ 3455.008776] ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620
[ 3455.010097] ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0

[ 3455.019046] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x177/0x5e0
Similarly, linkwatch might get to ipv6_add_dev without ops lock:
[ 3456.656261] ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620
[ 3456.660039] ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0

[ 3456.662676] netdev_state_change+0x65/0x90
[ 3456.663112] linkwatch_do_dev+0x5a/0x70

[ 3456.663990] linkwatch_event+0x21/0x30
[ 3456.664399] process_one_work+0x211/0x610
[ 3456.664828] worker_thread+0x1cc/0x380
[ 3456.665691] kthread+0xf4/0x210
Reclassify NETDEV_CHANGE as a notifier that consistently runs under the
instance lock.
