[PATCH net] net/stmmac: Fix free-after-use panic when interface goes does with XDP

[Jakub Raczynski <j.raczynski@samsung.com>]

When running XDP forwarding and interface gets shut down, kernel might panic
or show SLUB "poison overwritten" errors due to a race condition between
NAPI polling and resource freeing.

Observed error is one of following:
- Poison overwrriten

Root cause is stmmac_release() stops DMA and frees TX/RX ring buffers and
page pools while NAPI/XDP could still be accessing these resources in the
background.

Fix this by following:
- Set STMMAC_DOWN flag before stopping DMA to signal XDP to stop
- Call synchronize_rcu() after stopping DMA but before freeing resources to
  ensure all ongoing NAPI operations complete
- Add STMMAC_DOWN flag checks in XDP code paths (XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT) to
  drop packets when interface is going down. This has already been done for
  stmmac_xdp_xmit() so make it consistent
- Clear STMMAC_DOWN flag in __stmmac_open() to restore normal operation.
  This was only done for stmmac_reset_subtask() during abnormal operation,
  which is not enough. This does not affect normal operation as this flag is
  used only for XDP apps
