If you added NETPOLL support, do not forget to ensure hard_start_xmit
routine callable from interrupt context (or irq disabled).
See commit bce305f4fe779f29d99d414685243f5da0803254 for example.

You're absolutely right: this driver is very likely to blow up the caller when called with interrupts disabled -- it uses spin_unlock_irq() there! This *must* be fixed.
