I am enabling lsc interrupts.
I don't explicitly start/stop the queues.
Should I call link up/down before the start/stop? From the doc I saw it
shuts down the queues.
>From what I saw it calls the msix disable function in the start and the
stop functions. In the second time it seem to cause the error.
