i40evf: hold the critical task bit lock while opening

If i40evf_open() is called quickly at the same time as a reset occurs
(such as via ethtool) it is possible for the device to attempt to open
while a reset is in progress. This occurs because the driver was not
holding the critical task bit lock during i40evf_open, nor was it
holding it around the call to i40evf_up_complete() in
i40evf_reset_task().

We didn't hold the lock previously because calls to i40evf_down() would
take the bit lock directly, and this would have caused a deadlock.

To avoid this, we'll move the bit lock handling out of i40evf_down() and
into the callers of this function. Additionally, we'll now hold the bit
lock over the entire set of steps when going up or down, to ensure that
we remain consistent.

Ultimately this causes us to serialize the transitions between down and
up properly, and avoid changing status while we're resetting.
