6dcdd884e2 net: hwbm: Make the hwbm_pool lock a mutex
Based on review, `lock' is only acquired in hwbm_pool_add() which is
invoked via ->probe(), ->resume() and ->ndo_change_mtu(). Based on this
the lock can become a mutex and there is no need to disable interrupts
during the procedure.
Now that the lock is a mutex, hwbm_pool_add() no longer invokes
hwbm_pool_refill() in an atomic context so we can pass GFP_KERNEL to
hwbm_pool_refill() and remove the `gfp' argument from hwbm_pool_add().

When hwbm_pool_add exited in error the spinlock was not released. This
patch fixes this issue.

8cb2d8bf57 net: add a hardware buffer management helper API
This basic implementation allows to share code between driver using
hardware buffer management. As the code is hardware agnostic, there is
few helpers, most of the optimization brought by the an HW BM has to be
done at driver level.
