    s390/qeth: also use TX NAPI for non-IQD devices · 7a4b92e8
    Julian Wiedmann authored
    Set scan_threshold = 0 to opt out from the qdio layer's internal tasklet
    & timer mechanism for TX completions, and replace it with the TX NAPI
    infrastructure that qeth already uses for IQD devices. This avoids the
    fragile logic in qdio_check_output_queue(), enables tighter integration
    and gives us more tuning options via ethtool in the future.
    
    For now we continue to apply the same policy as the qdio layer:
    scan for completions if 32 TX buffers are in use, or after 1 sec.
    A re-scan is done after 10 sec, but only if no TX interrupt is pending.
    
    With scan_threshold = 0 we no longer get TX completion scans from
    within qdio_get_next_buffers(). So trigger these manually in qeth_poll()
    and in the RX path switch to the equivalent qdio_inspect_queue().
