However ifconfig driver down doesn't make the driver be unloaded.
Could you check if it works for you?

Just putting the interface down probably won't be enough. You have to delete
the whole interface, so the device is closed. Use "ifconfig --delete
<interface>" to do that.
It should actually down the device (which is supposed to close the driver) when all interfaces using the device are down. If that doesn't work, it's worth a bug report :-)
