Implement the shutdown hook to ensure clean and complete deactivation of MACB controller. The shutdown sequence is protected with 'rtnl_lock()' to serialize access and prevent race conditions while detaching and closing the network device. This ensure a safe transition when the Kexec utility calls the shutdown hook, facilitating seamless loading and booting of a new kernel from the currently running one.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
