[PATCH v3 1/2] net: export netdev_get_by_index_lock()

From: David Wei <hidden>
Date: 2025-11-01 02:24:53
Also in: io-uring
Subsystem: networking drivers, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Need to call netdev_get_by_index_lock() from io_uring/zcrx.c, but it is
currently private to net. Export the function in linux/netdevice.h.
