xen-netfront: call netif_carrier_off() only once when disconnecting
In xennet_disconnect_backend(), netif_carrier_off() was called once per queue when it needs to only be called once. The queue locking around the netif_carrier_off() call looked very odd. I think they were supposed to synchronize any NAPI instances with the expectation that no further NAPI instances would be scheduled because of the carrier being off (see the check in xennet_rx_interrupt()). But I can't easily tell if this works correctly. Instead, add a napi_synchronize() call after disabling the interrupts. This is obviously correct as with no Rx interrupts, no further NAPI instances will be scheduled. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
