Subject: [PATCH net-next 8/8] netdev: depend on netdev->lock for qstats in ops locked drivers

We mostly needed rtnl_lock in qstat to make sure the queue count
is stable while we work. For "ops locked" drivers the instance
lock protects the queue count, so we don't have to take rtnl_lock.

For currently ops-locked drivers: netdevsim and bnxt need
the protection from netdev going down while we dump, which
instance lock provides. gve doesn't care.
