04efcee6ef net: hold instance lock during NETDEV_CHANGE
Cosmin reports an issue with ipv6_add_dev being called from
NETDEV_CHANGE notifier:

[ 3455.008776]  ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620
[ 3455.010097]  ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0

[ 3455.019046]  rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x177/0x5e0

Similarly, linkwatch might get to ipv6_add_dev without ops lock:
[ 3456.656261]  ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620
[ 3456.660039]  ipv6_find_idev+0x96/0xe0

[ 3456.664828]  worker_thread+0x1cc/0x380
[ 3456.665691]  kthread+0xf4/0x210

Reclassify NETDEV_CHANGE as a notifier that consistently runs under the
instance lock.

1901066aab netdevsim: add dummy device notifiers
In order to exercise and verify notifiers' locking assumptions,
register dummy notifiers (via register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net).
Share notifier event handler that enforces the assumptions with
lock_debug.c (rename and export rtnl_net_debug_event as
netdev_debug_event). Add ops lock asserts to netdev_debug_event.

b912d599d3 net: rename rtnl_net_debug to lock_debug
And make it selected by CONFIG_DEBUG_NET. Don't rename any of
the structs/functions. Next patch will use rtnl_net_debug_event in
netdevsim.
