dcb: use __dev_get_by_name instead of dev_get_by_name to find interface
The following call chain indicates that dcb_doit() is protected
under rtnl_lock. So if we use __dev_get_by_name() instead of
dev_get_by_name() to find interface handlers in it, this would
help us avoid to change interface reference counter.
rtnetlink_rcv()
rtnl_lock()
netlink_rcv_skb()
dcb_doit()
rtnl_unlock()
