Subject: myri10ge: fix rmmod crash

From: Stanislaw Gruszka <[email protected]>

commit cda6587c21a887254c8ed4b58da8fcc4040ab557 upstream.

Rmmod myri10ge crash at free_netdev() -> netif_napi_del(), because napi
structures are already deallocated. To fix call netif_napi_del() before
kfree() at myri10ge_free_slices().
