Revision 22e1170310ec6afa41e0dc7ac9dfac735d82dcab authored by Stephen Hemminger on 12 July 2006, 22:23:48 UTC, committed by Jeff Garzik on 12 July 2006, 22:39:22 UTC
When the driver handles multiple packets per NAPI poll, it is
better to reload the receive ring, then tell the hardware. Otherwise,
under packet storm with flow control, the driver/hardware will degrade
down to one packet getting through per pause-exchange.

Likewise on transmit, don't wakeup until a little more than minimum
ring space is available.
