eth: iavf: extend the netdev_lock usage

Browse source

iavf uses the netdev->lock already to protect shapers.
In an upcoming series we'll try to protect NAPI instances
with netdev->lock.

We need to modify the protection a bit. All NAPI related
calls in the driver need to be consistently under the lock.
This will allow us to easily switch to a "we already hold
the lock" NAPI API later.

register_netdevice(), OTOH, must not be called under
the netdev_lock() as we do not intend to have an
"already locked" version of this call.
