Yep I know. trylock() is because this function can be called in two
scenarios:
1) .ndo_close(), when RTNL is already locked;
2) "soft reset" aka "stop the traffic, reallocate the queues, start the
traffic", when RTNL is not taken.
The second one spits a WARN without the RTNL being locked. So this
trylock() will do nothing for the first scenario and will take the lock
for the second one.
If that is not correct, let me know, I'll do it a different way (maybe
it's better to unconditionally take the lock on the callsite for the
second case?).
Thanks,
