Subject: [PATCH net v3] ibmvnic: fix a race between open and reset

__ibmvnic_reset() currently reads the adapter->state before getting the
rtnl and saves that state as the "target state" for the reset. If this
read occurs when adapter is in PROBED state, the target state would be
PROBED.

Just after the target state is saved, and before the actual reset process
is started (i.e before rtnl is acquired) if we get an ibmvnic_open() call
we would move the adapter to OPEN state.

But when the reset is processed (after ibmvnic_open()) drops the rtnl),
it will leave the adapter in PROBED state even though we already moved
it to OPEN.

To fix this, use the RTNL to improve the serialization when reading/updating
the adapter state. i.e determine the target state of a reset only after
getting the RTNL. And if a reset is in progress during an open, simply
set the target state of the adapter and let the reset code finish the
open (like we currently do if failover is pending).

One twist to this serialization is if the adapter state changes when we
drop the RTNL to update the link state. Account for this by checking if
there was an intervening open and update the target state for the reset
accordingly (see new comments in the code). Note that only the reset
functions and ibmvnic_open() can set the adapter to OPEN state and this
must happen under rtnl.

For some reason git am thinks this is an empty patch when I pull it out of patchwork.

Please fiux that and resubmit, thank you.
