virtio_net: fix a spurious deadlock issue

When the following snippet is run, lockdep will report a deadlock[1].

  /* Acquire all queues dim_locks */
  for (i = 0; i < vi->max_queue_pairs; i++)
          mutex_lock(&vi->rq[i].dim_lock);

There's no deadlock here because the vq locks are always taken
in the same order, but lockdep can not figure it out. So refactoring
the code to alleviate the problem.

ethtool/962 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

 lock(&vi->rq[i].dim_lock);

*** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation
