net: hold instance lock during NETDEV_CHANGE

Browse source 
Cosmin reports an issue with ipv6_add_dev being called from
NETDEV_CHANGE notifier:

[ 3455.008776]  ? ipv6_add_dev+0x370/0x620

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.

Devices drivers are encouraged to rely on the instance lock where possible.
For the (mostly software) drivers that need to interact with the core stack,
there are two sets of interfaces: ``dev_xxx`` and ``netif_xxx`` (e.g.,
``dev_set_mtu`` and ``netif_set_mtu``). The ``dev_xxx`` functions handle
acquiring the instance lock themselves, while the ``netif_xxx`` functions
assume that the driver has already acquired the instance lock.

Notifiers and netdev instance lock
==================================
@ -354,6 +355,7 @@ For devices with locked ops, currently only the following notifiers are
running under the lock:
* ``NETDEV_REGISTER``
* ``NETDEV_UP``
* ``NETDEV_CHANGE``
The following notifiers are running without the lock:
* ``NETDEV_UNREGISTER``
