exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen - shutdown

I ran into this nasty issue detailed here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=133339
The solution offered in another thread was to run

# ifconfig eth0 down

before I power off the computer. I do this manually and it has fixed my issue.
But since /etc/rc.local.shutdown doesn't exist anymore, I wasn't able to automate the solution.

Instead, (following some guides) I created /etc/systemd/system/shutdown-haxx.service

[Unit]
Description=Hack to help my laptop shut down

[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=true
ExecStart=/bin/true
ExecStop=/usr/bin/ifconfig eth0 down

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

and then ran

 # systemctl enable shutdown-haxx.service 

Confusingly enough, this hasn't resolved the issue. What am I doing wrong?
