Subject: [PATCH net v2 4/8] net: rmnet: remove rcu_read_lock in rmnet_force_unassociate_device()

The notifier_call() of the slave interface removes rmnet interface with
unregister_netdevice_queue().
But, before calling unregister_netdevice_queue(), it acquires
rcu readlock.
In the RCU critical section, sleeping isn't be allowed.
But, unregister_netdevice_queue() internally calls synchronize_net(),
which would sleep.
So, suspicious RCU usage warning occurs.

Test commands:
    modprobe rmnet
    ip link add dummy0 type dummy
    ip link add dummy1 type dummy
    ip link add rmnet0 link dummy0 type rmnet mux_id 1
    ip link set dummy1 master rmnet0
    ip link del dummy0

Splat looks like:
