Jakub Kicinski dd5b2498d8 nfp: add a mutex lock for the vNIC ctrl BAR
Soon we will try to write to the vNIC mailbox without RTNL held.
Add a new mutex to protect access to specific parts of the PCI
control BAR.

Move the mailbox size checking to the mailbox lock() helper, where
it can be more effective (happen prior to potential overwrite of
other data).

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
