syzbot reported a circular locking dependency involving &net->xdp.lock,
&xs->mutex, and netdev_lock_ops():
-> #3 (&net->xdp.lock):
xsk_notifier
unregister_netdevice_many_notify
rtnl_dellink
-> #2 (&port->pnodes_lock / netdev_lock):
ipvlan_device_event / bond / netdev_change_features
-> #1 (netdev_lock_ops):
xsk_bind (holds xs->mutex, takes netdev_lock_ops(dev))
-> #0 (&xs->mutex):
xsk_diag_dump (holds net->xdp.lock, takes xs->mutex)
In xsk_bind(), xs->mutex was acquired before dev_get_by_index() and
netdev_lock_ops(dev). However, in netdev notifier callbacks like
xsk_notifier(), netdev_lock_ops(dev) is held by the netdev core while
taking net->xdp.lock and then xs->mutex, creating an ABBA lock
inversion between xs->mutex and netdev_lock_ops(dev).
Fix this by looking up the target net_device and acquiring
netdev_lock_ops(dev) before acquiring xs->mutex in xsk_bind(). This
aligns xsk_bind() with the global lock hierarchy:
rtnl_lock -> netdev_lock_ops(dev) -> net->xdp.lock -> xs->mutex.
Fixes: 978939c08db1 ("xsk: use netdev_lock_ops in xsk_bind")
