Subject: [PATCH] 8139cp: Prevent dev_close/cp_interrupt race on MTU change

commit:  cb64edb6b89491edfdbae52ba7db9a8b8391d339 upstream

Above commit may introduce a race between cp_interrupt and dev_close
/ change MTU / dev_open up state. Changes cp_interrupt to tolerate
this.  Change spin_locking in cp_interrupt to avoid possible
but unobserved race.

Reported-by: "Francois Romieu" <romieu@...zoreil.com>

Tested on virtual hardware, Tx MTU size up to 4096, max tx payload
    was ping -s 4068 for MTU of 4096. No real hardware, need test
    assist.
