[PATCH 2.6.8-rc3-mm1 1/2] 8139too: Rx fifo/overflow recovery

From: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com>
Date: 2004-08-05 21:43:36

This patch allows to update the interrupt status register after an 
Rx overflow or a Rx fifo error even when the Rx buffer contains no packet.
As a side effect it saves a few heavy (i.e. flushed) pci ops per received
packet when several packets are received at the same time.
