Subject: [PATCH] igb: Do not call netif_device_detach() when PCIe link goes missing

When the driver notices that PCIe link is gone by reading 0xffffffff
from a register it clears hw->hw_addr and then calls netif_device_detach().
This happens when the PCIe device is physically unplugged for example
the user disconnected the Thunderbolt cable.

However, netif_device_detach() prevents netif_unregister() from bringing
the device down properly including tearing down MSI-X vectors. This
triggers following crash during the driver removal:

To prevent the crash do not call netif_device_detach() in igb_rd32().
This should be fine because hw->hw_addr is set to NULL preventing future
hardware access of the now missing device.
