qlge: Fix a deadlock when the interface is going down
Currently qlge can deadlock when the interface is going
down, and the mpi_port_cfg_work() is executing on another
processor. It happens because unregister_netdev() holds
the rtnl lock, and the mpi_port_cfg_work() also request
this lock.
Since unregiter_netdev() may wait mpi_port_cfg_work(), who
also request the holding lock, it can cause an deadlock,
displaying the following error:
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
