Subject: [PATCH RESEND] net: wwan: iosm: Remove unnecessary if_mutex lock

From: Zhaoping Shu <zhaoping.shu@...iatek.com>

These WWAN network interface operations (create/delete/open/close)
are already protected by RTNL lock, i.e., wwan_ops.newlink(),
wwan_ops.dellink(), net_device_ops.ndo_open() and
net_device.ndo_stop() are called with RTNL lock held.
Therefore, this patch removes the unnecessary if_mutex.
