Both rtl_work_func_t() and rtl8152_close() call napi_disable(). Since the two calls aren't protected by a lock, if the close function starts executing before the work function, we can get into a situation where the napi_disable() function is called twice in succession (first by rtl8152_close(), then by set_carrier()). In such a situation, the second call would loop indefinitely, since rtl8152_close() doesn't call napi_enable() to clear the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit. The rtl8152_close() function in turn issues a cancel_delayed_work_sync(), and so it would wait indefinitely for the rtl_work_func_t() to complete. Since rtl8152_close() is called by a process holding rtnl_lock() which is requested by other processes, this eventually leads to a system deadlock and crash. Re-order the napi_disable() call to occur after the work function disabling and urb cancellation calls are issued.

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.
