Paul Fertser b0a199accf net/ncsi: fix locking in Get MAC Address handling
[ Upstream commit 9e2bbab94b88295dcc57c7580393c9ee08d7314d ]

Obtaining RTNL lock in a response handler is not allowed since it runs
in an atomic softirq context. Postpone setting the MAC address by adding
a dedicated step to the configuration FSM.

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.
