PATCH 1/1 ixgb: fix bug when freeing resources

From: Jesse Brandeburg <[email protected]>

It was pointed out by Breno Leitao <[email protected]> that ixgb would crash on PPC when an IOMMU was in use, if change_mtu was called.

It appears to be a pretty simple issue in the driver that wasn't discovered because most systems don't run with an IOMMU. The driver needs to only unmap buffers that are mapped (duh).
