Song Yoong Siang a6451192da net: stmmac: fix kernel panic due to NULL pointer dereference of xsk_pool 
After free xsk_pool, there is possibility that napi polling is still
running in the middle, thus causes a kernel crash due to kernel NULL
pointer dereference of rx_q->xsk_pool and tx_q->xsk_pool.

Fix this by changing the XDP pool setup sequence to:
 1. disable napi before free xsk_pool
 2. enable napi after init xsk_pool

The following kernel panic is observed without this patch:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
