Matthew Wilcox f382a0a8e9 [netdrvr] atl1e: Don't take the mdio_lock in atl1e_probe
Lockdep warns about the mdio_lock taken with interrupts enabled then later
taken from interrupt context.  Initially, I considered changing these
to spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq, but then I looked at atl1e_phy_init()
and saw that it calls msleep().  Sleeping while holding a spinlock is
not allowed either.

In the probe path, we haven't registered the interrupt handler, so
it can't poke at this card yet.  It's before we call register_netdev(),
so I don't think any other threads can reach this card either.  If I'm
right, we don't need a spinlock at all.
