[PATCH net v4 1/1] mlxbf_gige: Fix kernel panic at shutdown

[Asmaa Mnebhi <asmaa@nvidia.com>]

There is a race condition happening during shutdown due to pending
napi transactions. Since mlxbf_gige_poll is still running, it tries
to access a NULL pointer and as a result causes a kernel panic.
To fix this during shutdown, invoke mlxbf_gige_remove to disable and
dequeue napi.

v3-v4:
 - replace .remove with .remove_new to be able to return a void to
   .shutdown as well.
v2-v3:
 - remove mlxbf_gige_shutdown() since it is redundant with mlxbf_gige_remove().
v1->v2:
 - fixed the tag from net-next to net
 - check that the "priv" pointer is not NULL in mlxbf_gige_remove()
