Subject: [PATCH net] r8169: fix DMA being used after buffer free if WoL is
 enabled

IOMMU errors have been reported if WoL is enabled and interface is
brought down. It turned out that the network chip triggers DMA
transfers after the DMA buffers have been freed. For WoL to work we
need to leave rx enabled, therefore simply stop the chip from being
a DMA busmaster.
