[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH] ixgbe: handle close/suspend race with netif_device_detach/present

When an interface is part of a namespace it is possible that
ixgbe_close() may be called while __ixgbe_shutdown() is running
which ends up in a double free WARN and/or a BUG in free_msi_irqs().

To handle this situation we extend the rtnl_lock() to protect the
call to netif_device_detach() and ixgbe_clear_interrupt_scheme()
in __ixgbe_shutdown() and check for netif_device_present()
to avoid clearing the interrupts second time in ixgbe_close().

Also extend the rtnl lock in ixgbe_resume() to netif_device_attach().
