From: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@xxxxxxxxx> Recent net core changes caused an issue with few Intel drivers (reportedly igb), where taking RTNL in RPM resume path results in a deadlock. See [0] for a bug report. I don't think the core changes are wrong, but taking RTNL in RPM resume path isn't needed. The Intel drivers are the only ones doing this. See [1] for a discussion on the issue. Following patch changes the RPM resume path to not take RTNL.
