net: qmi_wwan: should hold RTNL while changing netdev type
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 6c73008 ]

The notifier calls were thrown in as a last-minute fix for an
imagined "this device could be part of a bridge" problem. That
revealed a certain lack of locking.  Not to mention testing...

Avoid this splat:
