mainlining shenanigans

Doing ifconfig down on VF driver in the middle of receiving line rate
traffic causes a kernel panic:
LiquidIO_VF 0000:02:00.3: should not come here should not get rx when poll mode = 0 for vf
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
Kernel Offset: 0x24000000 from 0xffffffff81000000 (relocation range: 0xffffffff80000000-0xffffffffbfffffff)
---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
Reason is: in the function assigned to net_device_ops->ndo_stop, the steps
for bringing down the interface are done in the wrong order. The step that
notifies the NIC firmware to stop forwarding packets to host is done too
late. Fix it by moving that step to the beginning.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
