SubjectRe: [PATCH] igb: reinit_locked() should be called with rtnl_lock

There seems to be a second race, independent from the
original one, that results in a divide error:

kworker reboot -f tx packet

igb_reset_task
__igb_shutdown
rtnl_lock()
...
igb_clear_interrupt_scheme
igb_free_q_vectors
adapter->num_tx_queues = 0
...
rtnl_unlock()
rtnl_lock()
igb_reinit_locked
igb_down
igb_up
netif_tx_start_all_queues
dev_hard_start_xmit
igb_xmit_frame
igb_tx_queue_mapping
Panics on
r_idx % adapter->num_tx_queues

Using in igb_reset_task a logic similar to the one in
ixgbe_reset_subtask (bailing if __IGB_DOWN or __IGB_RESETTING
is set) seems to avoid the panic.
That logic was first introduced in ixgbe as part of commit
2f90b8657ec ('ixgbe: this patch adds support for DCB to the
kernel and ixgbe driver').
Both fixes seem to be needed.
