ibmvnic: avoid calling napi_disable() twice
__ibmvnic_open calls napi_disable without checking whether NAPI polling has already been disabled or not. This could cause napi_disable being called twice, which could generate deadlock. For example, the first napi_disable will spin until NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared by napi_complete_done, then set it again. When napi_disable is called the second time, it will loop infinitely because no dev->poll will be running to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED. To prevent above scenario from happening, call ibmvnic_napi_disable() which checks if napi is disabled or not before calling napi_disable.
