This adds proper locking protection in bnx2fc_ctrl_enabled around
the calls to the functions, _bnx2fc_enable and _bnx2fc_disable in
order to avoid concurrent access on these functions accessing global
referenced data structures in their internal intended work.

Nack. All we end up protecting is the check of cdev->enabled and I do not
believe taking two mutexes is required for that.
