Negative. This call path also exists:

dsa_tree_change_tag_proto()
-> rtnl_trylock()
-> dsa_tree_notify(dst, DSA_NOTIFIER_TAG_PROTO, &info)
   -> dsa_switch_change_tag_proto()
      -> ds->ops->change_tag_protocol()
         -> felix_change_tag_protocol()
            -> old_proto_ops->teardown()
               -> felix_tag_8021q_teardown()

where the rtnl_mutex is already held.
