Hi Luigi,
  I attached a minimal change containing two fixes:

- change IFNET_WLOCK into IFNET_RLOCK, to fix the cxgbe issue related
to this thread
- use the proper locking functions for the "worker_lock", unrelated
but needed to avoid the O.S. to trap because of a mismatch between
MTX_SPIN and MTX_DEF.

Cheers,
  Vincenzo
