From: Edwin Peer <[email protected]>
A TX queue can potentially immediately timeout after it is stopped
and the last TX timestamp on that queue was more than 5 seconds ago with
carrier still up. Prevent these intermittent false TX timeouts
by bringing down carrier first before calling netif_tx_disable().
Fixes: c0c050c58d84 ("bnxt_en: New Broadcom ethernet driver.")
