net: add retry mechanism to ndo_set_rx_mode_async
When ndo_set_rx_mode_async returns an error, schedule a retry with
exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s -- 15s total). Give up after the
4th retry and log an error via netdev_err().
This moves retry logic from individual drivers into the core stack.
Timer callback does not hold a ref on dev. Safe because the timer can
only be armed when dev is IFF_UP, and __dev_close_many runs
timer_delete_sync before clearing IFF_UP. Unregister always closes
IFF_UP devices first, so by the time dev can be freed the timer is
dead and cannot be re-armed.
