[net-next 05/10] ixgbevf: add spinlocks for MTU change calls

flat view

From: Emil Tantilov <redacted>

Protect set_rlpml with mailbox lock to make sure the MTU configuration
is handled properly.

This change resolves an issue where set_rlpml can fail when the VF
interface is brought up:
ixgbevf 0000:03:1d.6: Failed to set MTU at 1500
