[PATCH net v2] net: avoid registering new queue objects after device unregistration

netdev_queue_update_kobjects can be called after device unregistration
started (and device_del was called) resulting in two issues: possible
registration of new queue kobjects (leading to the following trace) and
providing a wrong 'old_queue' number (because real_num_tx_queues is not
updated in the unregistration path).

The fix for both is to only allow unregistering queue kobjects after a
net device started its unregistration and to ensure we know the current
Tx queue numbers (we update dev->real_num_tx_queues before returning).
This relies on the fact that dev->real_num_tx_queues is used for
'old_num' expect when firstly allocating queues.

(Rx queues are not affected as net_rx_queue_update_kobjects can't be
called after a net device started its unregistration).

Since v1:
  - Rebased on latest net tree.

David asked in v1 to rename queue functions in net-sysfs[1]. I do have a
patch to prefix all Rx queue functions with net_rx_queue_ and all Tx
ones with net_tx_queue_ in net-sysfs. However this could be confusing as
for historical reasons 'netdev_queue' was always used for Tx queues and
'(net(dev)_)rx_queue' for Rx ones, including 'struct netdev_queue' and
'struct netdev_rx_queue.

- Only renaming the functions in net-sysfs can be a little confusing
  with key structures not following the same scheme.

- But renaming 'struct netdev_queue' is really invasive (380+
  occurrences all over the kernel).

WDYT?

(Anyway such a patch would target net-next while this one is a fix for
net).

Thanks!
