[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v1 1/1] e1000e: add rtnl_lock() to e1000_reset_task

[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v1 1/1] e1000e: add rtnl_lock() to e1000_reset_task

[Vitaly Lifshits]

A possible race condition was found in e1000_reset_task,
after discovering a similar issue in igb driver
(024a8168b7 igb: reinit_locked() should be called with rtnl_lock).

Added rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() to avoid this.
