From: Subbaraya Sundeep <sbhatta@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c926252205c424c4842dbdbe02f8e3296f623204 ] At the stage of enabling packet I/O in otx2_open, If mailbox timeout occurs then interface ends up in down state where as hardware packet I/O is enabled. Hence disable packet I/O also before bailing out.
