Subject: [PATCH 1/2] xen-netback: Disable NAPI after disabling interrupts

From: Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@...aro.org>

Otherwise the interrupt handler still calls napi_complete. Although it
won't schedule NAPI again as either NAPI_STATE_DISABLE or
NAPI_STATE_SCHED is set, it is just unnecessary, and it makes more
sense to do this way.
