bnxt_en: Add a mutex to synchronize ULP operations
The current scheme relies heavily on the RTNL lock for all ULP
operations between the L2 and the RoCE driver. Add a new en_dev_lock
mutex so that the asynchronous ULP_STOP and ULP_START operations
can be serialized with bnxt_register_dev() and bnxt_unregister_dev()
calls without relying on the RTNL lock. The next patch will remove
the RTNL lock from the ULP_STOP and ULP_START calls.
