4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 018349d70f28a78d5343b3660cb66e1667005f8a ]
When netvsc device is removed it can call reschedule in RCU context.
This happens because canceling the subchannel setup work could (in theory)
cause a reschedule when manipulating the timer.
To reproduce, run with lockdep enabled kernel and unbind
a network device from hv_netvsc (via sysfs).

Resolve this by getting RTNL earlier. This is safe because the subchannel
work queue does trylock on RTNL and will detect the race.
