After free xsk_pool, there is possibility that napi polling is still
running in the middle, thus causes a kernel crash due to kernel NULL
pointer dereference of rx_q->xsk_pool and tx_q->xsk_pool.
Fix this by changing the XDP pool setup sequence to:
1. disable napi before free xsk_pool
2. enable napi after init xsk_pool
The following kernel panic is observed without this patch:
RIP: 0010:xsk_uses_need_wakeup+0x5/0x10

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
