netif_tx_disable() stops queues, IIRC. You seem to stop them twice.

You haven't masked any IRQ or disabled NAPI. What prevents the queues
from getting restarted right after this call?

I don't see you canceling this work. What if someone unregistered
the device before it runs? You gotta netdev_hold() a reference.

Name the labels after what you're jumping to, please.
It's so much easier to make sure the code is correct that way.

Is there a reason this wq has to be single threaded and different than
system queue? All you schedule on it in this series is the reset task.

One message when driver is loaded is probably fine, but two is really
pushing it. Please don't spam the logs.
