net: txgbe: fix RTNL assertion warning when remove module

For the copper NIC with external PHY, the driver called phylink_connect_phy() during probe and phylink_disconnect_phy() during remove. It caused an RTNL assertion warning in phylink_disconnect_phy() upon module remove.

To fix this, add rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() around the phylink_disconnect_phy() in remove function.
