ixgbe: delay rx_ring freeing
"cat /proc/net/dev" uses RCU protection only.
Its quite possible we call a driver get_stats() method while device is
dismantling and freeing its data structures.
So get_stats() methods must be very careful not accessing driver private
data without appropriate locking.
In ixgbe case, we access rx_ring pointers. These pointers are freed in
ixgbe_clear_interrupt_scheme() and set to NULL, this can trigger NULL
dereference in ixgbe_get_stats64()
A possible fix is to use RCU locking in ixgbe_get_stats64() and defer
rx_ring freeing after a grace period in ixgbe_clear_interrupt_scheme()
