[ Upstream commit 1b704c4a1ba95574832e730f23817b651db2aa59 ]
After queue stopped, the wakeup mechanism may wake it up again
when ring buffer usage is lower than a threshold. This may cause
send path panic on NULL pointer when we stopped all tx queues in
netvsc_detach and start removing the netvsc device.
This patch fix it by adding a tx_disable flag to prevent unwanted
queue wakeup.

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.
