bnx2: reset_task is crashing the kernel. Fixing it.
If bnx2 schedules a reset via the reset_task, e.g., due to a TX timeout, it's possible for the NIC to be disabled with packets pending for transmit. In this case, napi_disable will loop forever, eventually crashing the kernel. This patch moves the disable of the device to after the napi_disable call.
