Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] net: core: decouple ifalias get/set from rtnl lock

Device alias can be set by either rtnetlink (rtnl is held) or sysfs.

rtnetlink hold the rtnl mutex, sysfs acquires it for this purpose.
Add an extra mutex for it plus a seqcount to get a consistent snapshot
of the alias buffer.

This allows the sysfs path to not take rtnl and would later allow
to not hold it when dumping ifalias.

Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

 Changes since v1:
 - add a comment why dev->ifalias is freed
 via kfree, not kfree_rcu.
