rtnetlink: Remove __rtnl_link_unregister().
rtnl_link_unregister() holds RTNL and calls __rtnl_link_unregister(), where we call synchronize_srcu() to wait inflight RTM_NEWLINK requests for per-netns RTNL. We put synchronize_srcu() in __rtnl_link_unregister() due to ifb.ko and dummy.ko. However, rtnl_newlink() will acquire SRCU before RTNL later in this series. Then, lockdep will detect the deadlock: rtnl_link_unregister() rtnl_newlink() ---- ---- lock(rtnl_mutex); lock(&ops->srcu); lock(rtnl_mutex); sync(&ops->srcu); To avoid the problem, we must call synchronize_srcu() before RTNL in rtnl_link_unregister(). As a preparation, let's remove __rtnl_link_unregister().
