net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: rename smi_mutex to reg_lock
The chip smi_mutex mutex is used to protect the access to the internal switch registers, not only the Multi-chip Addressing Mode, as commented. Since we will isolate SMI-specific pieces of code, avoid the confusion now by renaming smi_mutex to reg_lock. No functional changes here.
