2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 9db2f1bec36805e57a003f7bb90e003815d96de8 ]

During TX timeout procedure dev could be awoken too early, e.g. by
sky2_complete_tx() called from sky2_down(). Then sky2_xmit_frame()
can run while buffers are freed causing an oops. This patch fixes it
by adding netif_device_present() test in sky2_tx_complete().
