It appears on some slower systems that the driver can find its way out of the workqueue while the interrupt is disabled by continuous polling by it. Move MACvIntEnable to vnt_interrupt_work so that it is always enabled on all routes out of vnt_interrupt_process. Move MACvIntDisable so that the device doesn't keep polling the system while the workqueue is being processed.
