This is the relevant part

------------

What I've done in my drivers is:
  * Lock the core mutex
  * Clear IFF_DRV_RUNNING
  * Lock/unlock each queue's lock

The various Rx/Tx queue functions check for IFF_DRV_RUNNING after
(re)acquiring their queue lock. See at vtnet_stop_rendezvous() at
[1] for an example.
