[PATCH net-next 06/11] ibmvnic: Halt TX and report carrier off on H_CLOSED return code

[Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

From: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch disables transmissions and reports carrier off if xmit
function returns that the hardware TX queue is closed. The driver can
then await a signal from firmware to determine the correct reset method.
