My machine annoyingly hangs while rebooting. I tracked it down

I review the changes and it seemed to be calling netif_poll_disable
one too many time. Once in e100_down(), and again in e100_shutdown().

The second one in e100_shutdown() caused the hang. So this patch
removes it.

it doesn't even do harm to netif_poll_disable() twice as far as I can see, as it merely calls test_and_set_bit(), which will instantly succeed on the first attempt if the bit was already set.

did this change actually fix it for you? I'm wondering if the netif_carrier_off might not be the culprit here...
