Subject: [PATCH 1/1] net: fec: fix kernel oops when plug/unplug cable many times

reproduce steps
 1. flood ping from other machine
 	ping -f -s 41000 IP
 2. run below script
    while [ 1 ]; do ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off;
    sleep 3;ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on; sleep 4; done;

You can see oops in one hour.

The reason is fec_restart clear BD but NAPI may use it.
The solution is disable NAPI and stop xmit when reset BD.
disable NAPI may sleep, so fec_restart can't be call in
atomic context.
