[PATCH 19.07] ramips: mt7530 swconfig: fix race condition in register access

[ Upstream commit f99c9cd9c4d4c49a676d678327546fd41690fe2a ]

The mt7530_{r,w}32 operation over MDIO uses 3 mdiobus operations and
does not hold a lock, which causes a race condition when multiple
threads try to access a register, they may get unexpected results.

To avoid this, handle the MDIO lock manually, and use the unlocked
__mdiobus_{read,write} in the critical section.

This fixes the "Ghost VLAN" artifact[1] in MT7530/7621 when the VLAN
operation and the swconfig LED link status poll race between each other.
