Revision 477206a018f902895bfcd069dd820bfe94c187b1 authored by Julien Ducourthial on 08 May 2012, 22:00:06 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 08 May 2012, 23:34:10 UTC
The r8169 may get stuck or show bad behaviour after activating TSO :
the net_device is not stopped when it has no more TX descriptors.
This problem comes from TX_BUFS_AVAIL which may reach -1 when all
transmit descriptors are in use. The patch simply tries to keep positive
values.

Tested with 8111d(onboard) on a D510MO, and with 8111e(onboard) on a
Zotac 890GXITX.
