sky2: prevent dual port receiver problems
When both ports are receiving simultaneously, the receive logic gets confused
and may pass up a packet before it is full. This causes hangs, and IP will see
lots of garbage packets. There is even the potential for data corruption if
a later arriving packet DMA's into freed memory.
It looks like a hardware bug because status arrives for a packet but no
data is there. Until this bug is worked out, block the user from bringing
up both ports at once.
