Subject: Re: [PATCH] sky2: Fix a race between sky2_down and sky2_poll

I tried your patch out, but it still got a crash.

The patch below does fix the problem. Does this look better?

thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] sky2: Shutdown receive path cleanly in sky2_down

If sky2_down was called while receiving a packet, receive interrupts
would still occur after the receive buffer was free'd causing a crash in
sky2_status_intr.

To avoid further receive interrupts after sky2_down:

* make sure NAPI and interrupts are fully disabled during shutdown
* call sky2_rx_stop after shutting down the receiver
* clear received packets after shutdown
