The Tx queues were not disabled in cases where the driver needed to stop
the interface to apply a new configuration. This could result in a kernel
panic when doing any of the 3 following actions:
* reconfiguring the number of queues (ethtool -L)
* reconfiguring the size of the ring buffers (ethtool -G)
* installing/removing an XDP program (ip l set dev ethX xdp)

Prevent the panic by making sure netif_tx_disable is called when stopping
an interface.

Without this patch, the following kernel panic can be observed when loading
an XDP program:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff80001238d040
