Subject: [net PATCH v5 10/11] octeontx2-pf: Disable packet I/O for graceful exit

From: Subbaraya Sundeep <sbhatta@...vell.com>

At the stage of enabling packet I/O in otx2_open, If mailbox
timeout occurs then interface ends up in down state where as
hardware packet I/O is enabled. Hence disable packet I/O also
before bailing out.
