rtnetlink: do not depend on RTNL in rtnl_fill_proto_down()
Change dev_change_proto_down() and dev_change_proto_down_reason()
to write once on dev->proto_down and dev->proto_down_reason.
Then rtnl_fill_proto_down() can use READ_ONCE() annotations
and run locklessly.
rtnl_proto_down_size() should assume worst case,
because readng dev->proto_down_reason multiple
times would be racy without RTNL in the future.
