When bringing down the netdevice or system shutdown, a panic can be
triggered while accessing the sysfs path because the device is already
removed.

Refer to housekeeping APIs using single feature types instead of flags.
This prevents from passing multiple isolation features at once to
housekeeping interfaces, which soon won't be possible anymore as each
isolation features will have their own cpumask.

<title>net: Decouple HK_FLAG_WQ and HK_FLAG_DOMAIN cpumask fetch</title>

<content type='text'>
To prepare for supporting each feature of the housekeeping cpumask
toward cpuset, prepare each of the HK_FLAG_* entries to move to their
own cpumask with enforcing to fetch them individually. The new
constraint is that multiple HK_FLAG_* entries can't be mixed together
anymore in a single call to housekeeping cpumask().

This will later allow, for example, to runtime modify the cpulist passed
through "isolcpus=", "nohz_full=" and "rcu_nocbs=" kernel boot
parameters.

Calling netdev_queue_update_kobjects is allowed during device
unregistration since commit 5c56580b74e5 ("net: Adjust TX queue kobjects
if number of queues changes during unregister"). But this is solely to
allow queue unregistrations. Any path attempting to add new queues after
a device started its unregistration should be fixed.

This patch adds a warning to detect such illegal use.

When updating Rx and Tx queue kobjects, the queue count should always be
updated to match the queue kobjects count. This was not done in the net
device unregistration path, fix it. Tracking all queue count updates
will allow in a following up patch to detect illegal updates.

.ndo_change_proto_down was added seemingly to enable out-of-tree
implementations. Over 2.5yrs later we still have no real users
upstream. Hardwire the generic implementation for now, we can
revert once real users materialize. (rocker is a test vehicle,
not a user.)

We need to drop the optimization on the sysfs side, because
unlike ndos priv_flags will be changed at runtime, so we'd
need READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE everywhere..
