NX3031 supports cut-through operation where ingress packets are
directly dma'ed into host buffers to reduce latency.
This requires larger dma buffers (2kb) and different alignemnt.
The buffer posting logic is changed a bit. The free rx buffers
are maintained in linked list, since the received reference
handles can be out of order. However rx descriptors are still
posted sequentially, indexed by producer.

o eliminate tx lock in netxen adapter struct, instead pound on netdev
tx lock appropriately.
o remove old "concurrent transmit" code that unnecessarily drops and
reacquires tx lock in hard_xmit_frame(), this is already serialized
the netdev xmit lock.
o reduce scope of tx lock in tx cleanup. tx cleanup operates on
different section of the ring than transmitting cpus and is
guarded by producer and consumer indices. This fixes a race
caused by rx softirq preemption on realtime kernels.

o separate and simpler irq handler for msi interrupts, avoids few checks
than legacy mode.
o avoid redudant tx_has_work() and rx_has_work() checks in interrupt
and napi, which can uncork irq based on racy (lockless) access to tx
and rx ring indices. If we get interrupt, there's sufficient reason to
schedule napi.
o replenish rx ring more often, remove self-imposed threshold rcv_free
that prevents posting rx desc to card. This improves performance in
low memory.

Here's the reworked patch.
This cleans up some unnecessary byte-swapping while setting up tx and
interpreting rx desc. The 64 bit rx status data should be converted
to host endian format only once and the macros just need to extract
bitfields.
This saves a spate of interrupts on pseries blades caused by buggy
(non) processing rx status ring.

netxen driver allows limited number of threads simultaneously posting
skb's in tx ring. If transmit slot is unavailable, driver calls
schedule() or loops in xmit_frame().
This patch returns TX_BUSY and lets the stack reschedule the packet if
transmit slot is unavailable. Also removes unnecessary check for tx
timeout in the driver itself, the network stack does that anyway.
