During a system reboot, the pci_device_shutdown() function is invoked before the network device is unregistered. However, the XDP program is unloaded as part of the netdev unregistration process—by which point most of the device's features have already been stopped.

Previously, the IDPF_REMOVE_IN_PROG flag was used to detect device removal and handle XDP unloading early. However, this flag does not cover the netdev unregistration path during shutdown.

This patch improves detection of shutdown or module removal scenarios by checking both IDPF_REMOVE_IN_PROG and IDPF_VPORT_REG_NETDEV flags. This ensures the XDP program is unloaded early and cleanly, avoiding unnecessary system reconfiguration.

Without the change `perf `hangs up on charaster devices. On my system
it's enough to run system-wide sampler for a few seconds to get the
hangup:

    $ perf record -a -g --call-graph=dwarf
    $ perf report
    # hung

`strace` shows that hangup happens on reading on a character device
`/dev/dri/renderD128`

    $ strace -y -f -p 2780484
    strace: Process 2780484 attached
    pread64(101</dev/dri/renderD128>, strace: Process 2780484 detached

It's call trace descends into `elfutils`:

The hangup happens because nothing in` perf` or `elfutils` checks if a
mapped file is easily readable.

The change conservatively skips all non-regular files.
