selftests: net: dsa: add a stress test for unlocked FDB operations

This test is a bit strange in that it is perhaps more manual than
others: it does not transmit a clear OK/FAIL verdict, because user space
does not have synchronous feedback from the kernel. If a hardware access
fails, it is in deferred context.

Nonetheless, on sja1105 I have used it successfully to find and solve a
concurrency issue, so it can be used as a starting point for other
driver maintainers too.

# Bridge FDB entries can be offloaded to DSA switches without holding the
# rtnl_mutex. Traditionally this mutex has conferred drivers implicit
# serialization, which means their code paths are not well tested in the
# presence of concurrency.
# This test creates a background task that stresses the FDB by adding and
# deleting an entry many times in a row without the rtnl_mutex held.
# It then tests the driver resistance to concurrency by calling .ndo_fdb_dump
# (with rtnl_mutex held) from a foreground task.
# Since either the FDB dump or the additions/removals can fail, but the
# additions and removals are performed in deferred as opposed to process
# context, we cannot simply check for user space error codes.
