mainlining shenanigans

Currently the functions mlxsw_sp2_ptp_{configure, deconfigure}_port()
assume that they are called when RTNL is locked and they warn otherwise.
The deconfigure function can be called when port is removed, for example
as part of device reload, then there is no locked RTNL and the function
warns [1].
To avoid such case, do not assume that RTNL protects this code, add a
dedicated mutex instead. The mutex protects 'ptp_state->config' which
stores the existing global configuration in hardware. Use this mutex also
to protect the code which configures the hardware. Then, there will be
only one configuration in any time, which will be updated in 'ptp_state'
and a race will be avoided.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
