Hi Dan,
I've updated wireless code on RHEL and get complain that now
cfg80211 and rfkill modules are loaded on machines that do not have
wireless hardware. Modules are auto-loaded because NetworkManager send
nl80211 messages to check if there are wireless devices in the system.

Instead of killing interrupts during reset when the first one happens,
kill them before issuing the reset.
This fixes an easy to reproduce crash with multiple cards sharing the
same IRQ.
