Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 064/104] net/xen-netfront: only napi_synchronize() if running

3.16.7-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chas Williams <3chas3@...il.com>

commit 274b045509175db0405c784be85e8cce116e6f7d upstream.

If an interface isn't running napi_synchronize() will hang forever.
