Roman reports a deadlock on unplug of a Thunderbolt docking station
containing an Intel I225 Ethernet adapter.
The root cause is that led_classdev's for LEDs on the adapter are
registered such that they're device-managed by the netdev. That
results in recursive acquisition of the rtnl_lock() mutex on unplug:
When the driver calls unregister_netdev(), it acquires rtnl_lock(),
then frees the device-managed resources. Upon unregistering the LEDs,
netdev_trig_deactivate() invokes unregister_netdevice_notifier(),
which tries to acquire rtnl_lock() again.
Avoid by using non-device-managed LED registration.
