Public bug reported:

[Impact]
The rtnl_lock() has been called in rtnetlink_rcv_msg(), and then in
__dev_open() it calls pm_runtime_resume() to resume devices, and in
some devices' resume function(igb_resum,igc_resume) they calls rtnl_lock()
again. That leads to a recursive lock.

This issue is introduced by below commit since v5.9-rc1
bd869245a3dc net: core: try to runtime-resume detached device in __dev_open

[Fix]
This commit currently is still under discussion fixes the issue.

[Test]
Verified on Dell Precision workstations.

[Where problems could occur]
