net: annotate accesses to dev->gso_max_segs
dev->gso_max_segs is written under RTNL protection, or when the device is
not yet visible, but is read locklessly.
Add netif_set_gso_max_segs() helper.
Add the READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() pairs, and use netif_set_gso_max_segs()
where we can to better document what is going on.
