Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] net: macb: Add shutdown operation support

Implement the shutdown hook to ensure clean and complete deactivation of
MACB controller. The shutdown sequence is protected with 'rtnl_lock()'
to serialize access and prevent race conditions while detaching and
closing the network device. This ensure a safe transition when the Kexec
utility calls the shutdown hook, facilitating seamless loading and
booting of a new kernel from the currently running one.
