I saw no point to mix these refactoring with actual change :-|

(and it doesn't help either as-is with netlink dumping, only sysfs path can
 elide rtnl).

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

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

rtnetlink holds rtnl mutex, sysfs acquires it for this purpose.
Add a new 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.
