Subject: [PATCH v2 07/11] net: calxedaxgmac: enable interrupts after napi_enable

From: Rob Herring <rob.herring@...xeda.com>

Fix a race condition where the interrupt handler may have called
napi_schedule before napi_enable is called. This would disable interrupts
and never actually schedule napi to run.
