igc: Fix possible system crash when loading module
Guarantee that when probe() is run again, PTM and PCI busmaster will be in the same state as it was if the driver was never loaded. Avoid an i225/i226 hardware issue that PTM requests can be made even though PCI bus mastering is not enabled. These unexpected PTM requests can crash some systems. So, "force" disable PTM and busmastering before removing the driver, so they can be re-enabled in the right order during probe(). This is more like a workaround and should be applicable for i225 and i226, in any platform.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
