[PATCH wpan-next 09/20] net: mac802154: Introduce a global device lock

[Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>]

The purpose of this device lock is to prevent the removal of the device
while an asynchronous MLME operation happens. The RTNL works well for
that but in a later series having the RTNL taken here will be
problematic and will cause lockdep to warn us about a circular
dependency. We don't really need the RTNL here, just a serialization
over this operation.

Replace the RTNL calls with this new lock.
