We can't have a callback from the interrupt shutdown code as you have to
wait for the queue to drain packets in flight. Something like this

     mark queue as going down (no more tx queueing)
     tell hardware not to route RX packets to it
     consume pending RX
     wait for already queued TX packets to be sent

Look what the block people did. They have a common multi-instance
hotplug state and they register each context (queue) as an instance. The
hotplug core invokes the corresponding callbacks when bringing a CPU up
or when shutting it down.

Thanks,
