e1000e: Use rtnl_lock to prevent race conditions between net and pci/pm
This patch is meant to address possible race conditions that can exist between network configuration and power management. A similar issue was fixed for igb in commit 9474933c ("igb: close/suspend race in netif_device_detach"). In addition it consolidates the code so that the PCI error handling code will essentially perform the power management freeze on the device prior to attempting a reset, and will thaw the device afterwards if that is what it is planning to do. Otherwise when we call close on the interface it should see it is detached and not attempt to call the logic to down the interface and free the IRQs again. From what I can tell the check that was adding the check for __E1000_DOWN in e1000e_close was added when runtime power management was added. However it should not be relevant for us as we perform a call to pm_runtime_get_sync before we call e1000_down/free_irq so it should always be back up before we call into this anyway.
