gianfar: Tx timeout issue
There's an older Tx timeout issue showing up on etsec2 devices
with 2 CPUs. I pinned this issue down to processing overhead
incurred by supporting multiple Tx/Rx rings, as explained in
the 2nd patch below. But before this, there's also a concurency
issue leading to Rx/Tx spurrious interrupts, addressed by the
'Tx NAPI' patch below.
The Tx timeout can be triggered with multiple Tx flows,
'iperf -c -N 8' commands, on a 2 CPUs etsec2 based (P1020) board.
