IB/ipoib: Prevent lockdep warning in __ipoib_ib_dev_flush

__ipoib_ib_dev_flush calls itself recursively on child devices, and lockdep
complains about locking vlan_rwsem twice (see below). Use down_read_nested
instead of down_read to prevent the warning.

 =============================================
 [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
 4.1.0-rc4+ #36 Tainted: G           O
 ---------------------------------------------
 kworker/u20:2/261 is trying to acquire lock:
  (&priv->vlan_rwsem){.+.+..}, at: [<ffffffffa0791e2a>] __ipoib_ib_dev_flush+0x3a/0x2b0 [ib_ipoib]

 but task is already holding lock:
  (&priv->vlan_rwsem){.+.+..}, at: [<ffffffffa0791e2a>] __ipoib_ib_dev_flush+0x3a/0x2b0 [ib_ipoib]

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(&priv->vlan_rwsem);
   lock(&priv->vlan_rwsem);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation
