The L3 error will be generated and system will crash during unloading of CPSW driver if CPSW is used as module and ethX devices are down. This happens because CPSW can be power off by PM runtime now when ethX devices are down. Hence, ensure that CPSW powered up by PM runtime before performing any deinitialization actions which require CPSW registers access. In case of PM runtime error just leave cpsw_remove() as we can't do anything anymore.
