You said in the cover letter that in practice this fix doesn't matter.
It seems trivial to test so perhaps it doesn't and we should leave the
code be? Looking at dev->flags without holding rtnl_lock() seems
suspicious, drivers commonly put the relevant portion of suspend/resume
routines under rtnl_lock()/rtnl_unlock() (although to be completely
frank IDK if it's actually possible for concurrent suspend +
open/close to happen).

Are there any callers of ipa_modem_stop() which don't hold rtnl_lock()?
