Andrew Lunn 448b4482c6 net: dsa: Add lockdep class to tx queues to avoid lockdep splat
DSA stacks an Ethernet device on top of an Ethernet device. This can
cause false positive lockdep splats for the transmit queue:

[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
4.0.0-rc7-01838-g70621a215fc7 #386 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------
kworker/0:0/4 is trying to acquire lock:
 (_xmit_ETHER#2){+.-...}, at: [<c040e95c>] sch_direct_xmit+0xa8/0x1fc

but task is already holding lock:
 (_xmit_ETHER#2){+.-...}, at: [<c03f4208>] __dev_queue_xmit+0x4d4/0x56c

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(_xmit_ETHER#2);
  lock(_xmit_ETHER#2);

To avoid this, walk the tq queues of the dsa slaves and set a lockdep
class.
