The nic controller's clock on/off irq (CSR_INT_BIT_MAC_CLK_ACTV) is generated when device goes on/off
Unlikely turning on the device, irq by off the device may cause oops because iwl_pci_remove already freed required resources
The irq_tasklet should not be invoked at that condition
$sudo modprobe -r iwl3945
