Subject: [PATCH net v4] xen-netback: fix race condition on XenBus disconnect

In some cases during XenBus disconnect event handling and subsequent
queue resource release there may be some TX handlers active on
other processors. Use RCU in order to synchronize with them.

Signed-off-by: Igor Druzhinin <igor.druzhinin@...rix.com>
---
v4:
 * Use READ_ONCE instead of rcu_dereference to stop sparse complaining

v3:
 * Fix unintended semantic change in xenvif_get_ethtool_stats
 * Dropped extra code

v2:
 * Add protection for xenvif_get_ethtool_stats
 * Additional comments and fixes
