    r8169: fix NAPI handling under high load · 6b839b6c
    Heiner Kallweit authored
    rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() are called only if the respective bits are set
    in the interrupt status register. Under high load NAPI may not be
    able to process all data (work_done == budget) and it will schedule
    subsequent calls to the poll callback.
    rtl_ack_events() however resets the bits in the interrupt status
    register, therefore subsequent calls to rtl8169_poll() won't call
    rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() - chip interrupts are still disabled.
    
    Fix this by calling rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() independent of the bits
    set in the interrupt status register. Both functions will detect
    if there's nothing to do for them.
