drivers: net: at91_ether: Make mdio protection -rt safe
Neither the phy interrupt nor the timer callback which updates the link status in absense of a phy interrupt are taking lp->lock which serializes the MDIO access. This works on mainline as at91 is an UP machine. On preempt-rt the timer callback can run even in the spin_lock_irq(&lp->lock) protected code pathes because spin_lock_irq is neither disabling interrupts nor disabling preemption. Fix this by adding proper locking to at91ether_phy_interrupt() and at91_check_ether() which serializes the access on -rt. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
