net: pktgen: remove rcu locking in pktgen_change_name()
After Jesper commit back in linux-3.18, we trigger a lockdep
splat in proc_create_data() while allocating memory from
pktgen_change_name().
This patch converts t->if_lock to a mutex, since it is now only
used from control path, and adds proper locking to pktgen_change_name()
1) pktgen_thread_lock to protect the outer loop (iterating threads)
2) t->if_lock to protect the inner loop (iterating devices)
Note that before Jesper patch, pktgen_change_name() was lacking proper
protection, but lockdep was not able to detect the problem.
Fixes:
