The repro is part of our CI test, where we run traffic tests and at the
end perform "restart driver" stage. At that stage, this lockdep is
printed.

The test is:
1. Create bond interfaces
2. Run traffic
3. Strop traffic and check that everything is OK
4. Restart driver:
modprobe -r -a bonding
modprobe -r -a vfio-pci ip_gre ip6_gre bonding geneve ipip ip6_tunnel
modprobe -r -a ib_umad ib_ipoib rdma_ucm mlx5_vfio_pci mlx5_ib mlx5_core mlx5-vfio-pci nf_tables
