Eric Dumazet 88df16f851 net: sched: calls synchronize_net() only when needed ...

dev_deactivate_many() role is to remove the qdiscs
of a network device.

When/if a qdisc is dismantled, an rcu grace period
is needed to make sure all outstanding qdisc enqueue
are done before we proceed with a qdisc reset.

Most virtual devices do not have a qdisc.

We can call the expensive synchronize_net() only
if needed.

Note that dev_deactivate_many() does not have to deal
with qdisc-less dev_queue_xmit, as an old comment
was claiming.
