Is it just an issue of us restarting the queues when we shouldn't?

Before this patch driver couldn't be unloaded with tc filter applied.

Running those commands is enough to reproduce the issue:
   tc qdisc add dev enp0s29f2 ingress
   tc filter add dev enp0s29f2 ingress protocol all prio 1 u32
   rmmod dwmac_intel

in effect module would not unload.
