leds: trigger: netdev: Use mutex instead of spinlocks

Some LEDs may require to sleep while doing some operation like setting
brightness and other cleanup.

For this reason, using a spinlock will cause a sleep under spinlock
warning.

It should be safe to convert this to a sleepable lock since:
- sysfs read/write can sleep
- netdev_trig_work is a work queue and can sleep
- netdev _trig_notify can sleep

The spinlock was used when brightness didn't support sleeping, but this
changed and now it supported with brightness_set_blocking().

Convert to mutex lock to permit sleeping using brightness_set_blocking().
