Currently when something goes wrong at some step when disabling the buffers
we immediately abort. This has the effect that the enable/disable calls are
no longer balanced. So make sure that even if one step in the disable
sequence fails the other steps are still executed.
The other issue is that when either enable or disable fails buffers that
were active at that time stay active while the device itself is disabled.
This leaves things in a inconsistent state and can cause unbalanced
enable/disable calls. Furthermore when enable fails we restore the old scan
mask, but still keeps things disabled.
Given that verification of the configuration was performed earlier and it
is valid at the point where we try to enable/disable the most likely reason
of failure is a communication failure with the device or maybe a
out-of-memory situation. There is not really a good recovery strategy in
such a case, so it makes sense to leave the device disabled, but we should
still leave it in a consistent state.
What the patch does if disable/enable fails is to deactivate all buffers
and make sure that the device will be in the same state as if all buffers
had been manually disabled.
