> This patch is meant to address possible race conditions that can exist
> between network configuration and power management. A similar issue was

> netif_device_detach").

> In addition it consolidates the code so that the PCI error handling code
> will essentially perform the power management freeze on the device prior to
> attempting a reset, and will thaw the device afterwards if that is what it
> is planning to do. Otherwise when we call close on the interface it should
> see it is detached and not attempt to call the logic to down the interface
> and free the IRQs again.

> in e1000e_close was added when runtime power management was added.
> However

> pm_runtime_get_sync before we call e1000_down/free_irq so it should
