[Xen-devel] [PATCH net-next] xen-netback: Fix vif->disable handling

[Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In the patch called "xen-netback: Turn off the carrier if the guest is not able
to receive" new branches were introduced to this if statement, risking that a
queue with non-zero id can reenable the disabled interface.
