net: calxedaxgmac: Fix panic caused by MTU change of active interface

Changing MTU size of an xgmac network interface while it is active can
cause a panic like

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:c03bc62c len:1090 put:1090 head:edfb6900 data:edfb6942 tail:0xedfb6d84 end:0xedfb6bc0 dev:eth0

PC is at skb_panic+0x64/0x70
LR is at wake_up_klogd+0x5c/0x68

This happens because xgmac_change_mtu modifies dev->mtu before the
network interface is quiesced. And thus there still might be buffers
in use which have a buffer size based on the old MTU.

To fix this I moved the change of dev->mtu after the call to
xgmac_stop.

Another modification is required (in xgmac_stop) to ensure that
xgmac_xmit is really not called anymore (xgmac_tx_complete might wake
up the queue again).

I've tested the fix by switching MTU size every second between 600 and
1500 while network traffic was going on. The test box survived a test
of several hours (until I've stopped it) whereas w/o this fix above
panic occurs after several minutes (at most).

Change since v1:
- remove call to netif_stop_queue at beginning of xgmac_stop
- use netif_tx_disable instead of locking+netif_stop_queue
