Instead of using '0' and '1' for napi threaded state use an enum with
'disabled' and 'enabled' states.

Commit cc34acd577 ("docs: net: document new locking reality")
introduced netif_ vs dev_ function semantics: the former expects locked
netdev, the latter takes care of the locking. We don't strictly
follow this semantics on either side, but there are more dev_xxx handlers
now that don't fit. Rename them to netif_xxx where appropriate.
Note that one dev_set_threaded call still remains in mt76 for debugfs file.

All users of dev_set_mac_address() are now using a struct sockaddr_storage.

In order to avoid passing around struct sockaddr that has a size the
compiler cannot reason about (nor track at runtime), convert
netif_set_mac_address() to take struct sockaddr_storage. This is just a
cast conversion, so there is are no binary changes. Following patches
will make actual allocation changes.

Accidentally spotted while trying to understand what else needs
to be renamed to netif_ prefix. Most of the calls to dev_set_promiscuity
are adjacent to dev_set_allmulti or dev_disable_lro so it should
be safe to add the lock. Note that new netif_set_promiscuity is
currently unused, the locked paths call __dev_set_promiscuity directly.

Callers of inetdev_init can come from several places with inconsistent
expectation about netdev instance lock. Grab instance lock during
REGISTER (plus UP). Also solve the inconsistency with UNREGISTER
where it was locked only during move netns path.

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

To preserve the atomicity, hold the lock while applying multiple
attributes. The major issue with a full conversion to the instance
lock are software nesting devices (bonding/team/vrf/etc). Those
devices call into the core stack for their lower (potentially
real hw) devices. To avoid explicitly wrapping all those places
into instance lock/unlock, introduce new API boundaries:
- (some) existing dev_xxx calls are now considered "external"
(to drivers) APIs and they transparently grab the instance
lock if needed (dev_api.c)
- new netif_xxx calls are internal core stack API (naming is
sketchy, I've tried netdev_xxx_locked per Jakub's suggestion,
but it feels a bit verbose; but happy to get back to this
naming scheme if this is the preference)
This avoids touching most of the existing ioctl/sysfs/drivers paths.
Note the special handling of ndo_xxx_slave operations: I exploit
the fact that none of the drivers that call these functions
need/use instance lock. At the same time, they use dev_xxx
APIs, so the lower device has to be unlocked.
Changes in unregister_netdevice_many_notify (to protect dev->state
with instance lock) trigger lockdep - the loop over close_list
(mostly from cleanup_net) introduces spurious ordering issues.
netdev_lock_cmp_fn has a justification on why it's ok to suppress
for now.
