Subject: net: stmmac: fix notifier registration
From: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 474a31e13a4e9749fb3ee55794d69d0f17ee0998 upstream.
We cannot register the same netdev notifier multiple times when probing
stmmac devices. Register the notifier only once in module init, and also
make debugfs creation/deletion safe against simultaneous notifier call.
Fixes: 481a7d154cbb ("stmmac: debugfs entry name is not be changed when udev rename device name.")
