Sameeh Jubran a53651ec93 net: ena: don't wake up tx queue when down
There is a race condition that can occur when calling ena_down().
The ena_clean_tx_irq() - which is a part of the napi handler -
function might wake up the tx queue when the queue is supposed
to be down (during recovery or changing the size of the queues
for example) This causes the ena_start_xmit() function to trigger
and possibly try to access the destroyed queues.

The race is illustrated below:

Flow A:                                       Flow B(napi handler)
ena_down()
   netif_carrier_off()
   netif_tx_disable()
                                                      ena_clean_tx_irq()
                                                         netif_tx_wake_queue()
   ena_napi_disable_all()
   ena_destroy_all_io_queues()

After these flows the tx queue is active and ena_start_xmit() accesses
the destroyed queue which leads to a kernel panic.

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.
