net-sysfs: remove rtnl_trylock from device attributes

net-sysfs: remove rtnl_trylock from device attributes

There is an ABBA deadlock between net device unregistration and sysfs
files being accessed[1][2]. To prevent this from happening all paths
taking the rtnl lock after the sysfs one (actually kn->active refcount)
use rtnl_trylock and return early (using restart_syscall)[3], which can
make syscalls to spin for a long time when there is contention on the
rtnl lock[4].

There are not many possibilities to improve the above:
- Rework the entire net/ locking logic.
- Invert two locks in one of the paths — not possible.

But here it's actually possible to drop one of the locks safely: the
kernfs_node refcount. More details in the code itself, which comes with
lots of comments.

Note that we check the device is alive in the added sysfs_rtnl_lock
helper to disallow sysfs operations to run after device dismantle has
started. This also help keeping the same behavior as before. Because of
this calls to dev_isalive in sysfs ops were removed.
