From: Vasundhara Volam <vasundhara-v.vo...@broadcom.com>
The driver was modified to not rely on rtnl lock to protect link
settings about 2 years ago. The pause setting was missed when
making that change. Fix it by acquiring link_lock mutex before
calling bnxt_hwrm_set_pause().
Fixes: e2dc9b6e38fa ("bnxt_en: Don't use rtnl lock to protect link change logic
in workqueue.")
