Hmm, why do you remove it here? Can't you remove it in a separate patch?
I thought we already got rid of it :p

I don't believe this is needed. You're calling this function from
switchdev_port_attr_set_now() which is always called from process
context. switchdev_port_attr_set() takes care of that. Similar to
switchdev_port_obj_add().

The event `SWITCHDEV_PORT_ATTR_SET` is therefore always blocking and
drivers only need to take care of it from their blocking notifier.
