net: designate queue -> napi linking as "ops protected"
netdev netlink is the only reader of netdev_{,rx_}queue->napi, and it already holds netdev->lock. Switch protection of the writes to netdev->lock to "ops protected". The expectation will be now that accessing queue->napi will require netdev->lock for "ops locked" drivers, and rtnl_lock for all other drivers. Current "ops locked" drivers don't require any changes. gve and netdevsim use _locked() helpers right next to netif_queue_set_napi() so they must be holding the instance lock. iavf doesn't call it. bnxt is a bit messy but all paths seem locked.
