Subject: [PATCH net 1/3] igc: Clean the TX buffer and TX descriptor ring

From: Muhammad Husaini Zulkifli <muhammad.husaini.zulkifli@...el.com>

There could be a race condition during link down where interrupt
being generated and igc_clean_tx_irq() been called to perform the
TX completion. Properly clear the TX buffer and TX descriptor ring
to avoid those case.

Fixes: 13b5b7fd6a4a ("igc: Add support for Tx/Rx rings")
