Subject: [PATCH] sky2: Avoid races in sky2_down

Hi Stephen,

Resending with sign off. (You may have this in your tree already, but
just in case...)
I ran some overnight tests with this patch in, and my machine manages
to stay up all night, where it crashed within minutes before.

Mike

Reset rx chain before trying to drain it.
Shut interrupts off last, incase there's something to report.
