Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The rtnl_lock() has been called in rtnetlink_rcv_msg(), and then in
  __dev_open() it calls pm_runtime_resume() to resume devices, and in
  some devices' resume function(igb_resum,igc_resume) they calls rtnl_lock()
  again. That leads to a recursive lock.

  This issue is introduced by below commit since v5.9-rc1
  bd869245a3dc net: core: try to runtime-resume detached device in __dev_open
