4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit 78a55d05def95144ca5fa9a64c49b2a0636a9866 ]
napi poll functions should be initialized before running request_irq(),
to handle a rare condition where there is a pending interrupt, causing
the ISR to fire immediately while the poll function wasn't set yet,
causing a NULL dereference.
Fixes: 1738cd3ed342 ("net: ena: Add a driver for Amazon Elastic Network Adapters (ENA)")
