Subject: [PATCH net-next 08/11] net: protect threaded status of NAPI with netdev_lock()

Now that NAPI instances can't come and go without holding
netdev->lock we can trivially switch from rtnl_lock() to
netdev_lock() for setting netdev->threaded via sysfs.

Note that since we do not lock netdev_lock around sysfs
calls in the core we don't have to "trylock" like we do
with rtnl_lock.
