Subject: [PATCH net-next 01/14] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Remove RTNL assertion

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

Remove the RTNL assertion in the nexthop notifier block. The assertion
is not needed given RTNL is never assumed to be taken.

This is a preparation for future patches where mlxsw will start handling
nexthop events that are not always sent with RTNL held.
