After the introduction of a private mac_lock that serializes access to priv->mac (and port_priv->mac in the switch), the only remaining purpose of rtnl_lock() is to satisfy the locking requirements of phylink_fwnode_phy_connect() and phylink_disconnect_phy(). But the functions these live in, dpaa2_mac_connect() and dpaa2_mac_disconnect(), have contradictory locking requirements. While phylink_fwnode_phy_connect() wants rtnl_lock() to be held, phylink_create() wants it to not be held. Move the rtnl_lock() from top-level (in the dpaa2-eth and dpaa2-switch drivers) to only surround the phylink calls that require it, in the dpaa2-mac library code. This is possible because dpaa2_mac_connect() and dpaa2_mac_disconnect() run unlocked, and there isn't any danger of an AB/BA deadlock between the rtnl_mutex and other private locks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
