Today netpoll_rx_enable and netpoll_rx_disable are called from dev_close and and __dev_close, and not from dev_close_many. Move the calls into __dev_close_many so that we have a single call site to maintain, and so that dev_close_many gains this protection as well. Which importantly makes batched network device deletes safe. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
