SubjectRE: [PATCH net v2 1/2] Revert "r8152: napi hangup fix after disconnect"

In rtl8152_disconnect(), the flow would be as following.

static void rtl8152_disconnect(struct usb_interface *intf)
{
...
- netif_napi_del(&tp->napi);
- unregister_netdev(tp->netdev);
- rtl8152_close
- napi_disable

Therefore you add a checking of RTL8152_UNPLUG to avoid
calling napi_disable() after netif_napi_del(). However,
after commit ffa9fec30ca0 ("r8152: set RTL8152_UNPLUG
only for real disconnection"), RTL8152_UNPLUG is not
always set when calling rtl8152_disconnect(). That is,
napi_disable() would be called after netif_napi_del(),
if RTL8152_UNPLUG is not set.

The best way is to avoid calling netif_napi_del() before
calling unregister_netdev(). And I has submitted such
patch following this one.

Best Regards,
Hayes
