Subject: [PATCH 4.19 054/149] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Release lock while requesting IRQ

From: Andrew Lunn <andrew@...n.ch>

[ Upstream commit 342a0ee70acbee97fdeb91349420f8744eb291fb ]

There is no need to hold the register lock while requesting the GPIO
interrupt. By not holding it we can also avoid a false positive
lockdep splat.
