WARNING: possible recursive locking detected

--------------------------------------------
syz-executor1/3398 is trying to acquire lock:
 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<00000000459b3368>] rtnl_lock+0x17/0x20 net/core/rtnetlink.c:74

but task is already holding lock:
 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<00000000459b3368>] rtnl_lock+0x17/0x20 net/core/rtnetlink.c:74

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

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(rtnl_mutex);
  lock(rtnl_mutex);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

1 lock held by syz-executor1/3398:
 #0:  (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<00000000459b3368>] rtnl_lock+0x17/0x20 net/core/rtnetlink.c:74
