Protect xdp_features with netdev->lock. This way pure readers no longer have to take rtnl_lock to access the field. This includes calling NETDEV_XDP_FEAT_CHANGE under the lock. Looks like that's fine for bonding, the only "real" listener, it's the same as ethtool feature change. In terms of normal drivers - only GVE need special consideration (other drivers don't use instance lock or don't support XDP). It calls xdp_set_features_flag() helper from gve_init_priv() which in turn is called from gve_reset_recovery() (locked), or prior to netdev registration. So switch to _locked.

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 reStructuredText 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.
