Here is a deadlock scenario:
- netvsc_vf_up() schedules netvsc_notify_peers() work and quits.
- netvsc_vf_down() runs before netvsc_notify_peers() gets executed. As it
  is being executed from netdev notifier chain we hold rtnl lock when we
  get here.
- we enter while (atomic_read(&net_device_ctx->vf_use_cnt) != 0) loop and
  wait till netvsc_notify_peers() drops vf_use_cnt.
- netvsc_notify_peers() starts on some other CPU but netdev_notify_peers()
  will hang on rtnl_lock().
- deadlock!

Instead of introducing additional synchronization I suggest we drop
gwrk.dwrk completely and call NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS directly. As we're
acting under rtnl lock this is legitimate.
