i40e: Remove scheduling while atomic possibility
In some occasions task held spinlock (mac_filter_hash_lock), while being rescheduled due to admin queue mutex_lock. The struct i40e_spinlock asq_spinlock, which later expands to struct mutex spinlock. Moved i40e_aq_set_vsi_multicast_promiscuous(), i40e_aq_set_vsi_unicast_promiscuous(), i40e_aq_set_vsi_mc_promisc_on_vlan(), and i40e_aq_set_vsi_uc_promisc_on_vlan() outside of atomic context. Without this patch there is a race condition, which might result in scheduling while in atomic context. The race condition is between the thread, which holds mac_filter_hash_lock, while trying to acquire an admin queue mutex and a thread, which already has said admin queue mutex. The thread, which holds spinlock, fails to acquire the mutex, which causes this thread to sleep.
