Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next] sfc: replace in_interrupt() usage

efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf() used in_interrupt() to figure out
whether it is safe to sleep (for MCDI) or not.
The only caller from which it was not is efx_net_stats(), which can be
invoked under dev_base_lock from net-sysfs::netstat_show().
So add a new update_stats_atomic() method to struct efx_nic_type, and
call it from efx_net_stats(), removing the need for
efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf() to behave differently for this case
(which it wasn't doing correctly anyway).
For all nic_types other than EF10 VF, this method is NULL and so we
call the regular update_stats() methods, which are happy with being
called from atomic contexts.

Fixes: f00bf2305cab ("sfc: don't update stats on VF when called in atomic context")

Only compile-tested so far, because I'm waiting for my kernel to
finish rebuilding with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP which I'm hoping
is the right thing to detect the bug in the existing code.
I also wasn't quite sure how to give credit to the thorough analysis
in the commit message of Sebastian's patch. I don't think we have
a Whatever-by: tag to cover that, do we?
And this doesn't include your GFP_KERNEL change, which should
probably go in separately if you take this.

That's much nicer.

Sebastian did the analysis and I did some word polishing, but the credit
surely goes to him.

I've now tested and confirmed that the might_sleep warning goes
away with this patch.

Thomas, do you want to pull it into v2 of your series, or should
I submit it separately to David?

I have it already, but if Dave applies it right away, that's fine.
