[ Upstream commit 9870257a0a338cd8d6c1cddab74e703f490f6779 ]

Fix races between ravb_tx_timeout_work() and functions of net_device_ops
and ethtool_ops by using rtnl_trylock() and rtnl_unlock(). Note that
since ravb_close() is under the rtnl lock and calls cancel_work_sync(),
ravb_tx_timeout_work() should calls rtnl_trylock(). Otherwise, a deadlock
may happen in ravb_tx_timeout_work() like below:

CPU0 CPU1
ravb_tx_timeout()
schedule_work()
...
__dev_close_many()
// Under rtnl lock
ravb_close()
cancel_work_sync()
// Waiting
ravb_tx_timeout_work()
rtnl_lock()
// This is possible to cause a deadlock

If rtnl_trylock() fails, rescheduling the work with sleep for 1 msec.
