Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

Protect all ethtool callbacks and PHY related state with the netdev
instance lock, for drivers which want / need to have their ops
instance-locked. Basically take the lock everywhere we take rtnl_lock.
It was tempting to take the lock in ethnl_ops_begin(), but turns
out we actually nest those calls (when generating notifications).

Use more inclusive terms throughout the DSA subsystem by moving away
from "master" which is replaced by "conduit" and "slave" which is
replaced by "user". No functional changes.
