Subject: [PATCH net 6/6] bnxt_en: Fix possible corruption in DCB parameters from firmware.

From: Sankar Patchineelam <sankar.patchineelam@...adcom.com>

hwrm_send_message() is replaced with _hwrm_send_message(), and
hwrm_cmd_lock mutex lock is grabbed for the whole period of
firmware call until the firmware DCB parameters have been copied.
This will prevent possible corruption of the firmware data.

Fixes: 7df4ae9fe855 ("bnxt_en: Implement DCBNL to support host-based DCBX.")
