In cvm_oct_rx_initialize(), request_irq() is called with
&oct_rx_group[i].napi as the dev_id:
request_irq(oct_rx_group[i].irq, cvm_oct_do_interrupt, 0, "Ethernet",
&oct_rx_group[i].napi);
However, cvm_oct_rx_shutdown() passes cvm_oct_device (an array of
struct net_device pointers) as the dev_id to free_irq():
free_irq(oct_rx_group[i].irq, cvm_oct_device);
Since __free_irq() matches the action to remove by comparing
dev_id pointers, the mismatched cookie means the IRQ handler is
never found, triggering a WARN and leaving the IRQ line permanently
allocated. This prevents proper driver cleanup on module removal.
Fix the mismatch by passing &oct_rx_group[i].napi as the dev_id
to free_irq(), matching what was used during request_irq().
