I don't see a fast ageing happening on link down. There is the two cases:
1. Soft link down

With iproute2 command the link is brought down and
mv88e6xxx_mac_link_down() is called with rtnl lock taken.

2. Hard link down

I remove the cable from the port and mv88e6xxx_mac_link_down() is
called without rtnl lock.

As the hard link down case calls without rtnl lock, either I trigger
the case you have mentioned or I have to use rtnl_is_locked()
somewhere along the line?
