ixgbe: only process one ixgbe_watchdog_task at a time.
Processing multiple ixgbe_watchdog_task calls may cause the link_up variable and IXGBE_FLAG_NEED_LINK_UPDATE flag to be set incorrectly. In the worse case this is causing the netif_carrier_off to be called inappropriately which results in an interface that can't be brought up. Although schedule_work() will only schedule the task if it is not already on the work queue the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING bits are cleared just before calling the work function. This allows WORK_STRUCT_PENDING to be cleared, the work function to start and meanwhile schedule another task. This patch adds a mutex to the watchdog task. This bug is actualized by changing DCB settings or doing extended cable pull or reset tests.
