[PATCH net-next 2/3] mlx4_en: Moving to Interrupts for TX completions

From: Yevgeny Petrilin <hidden>
Date: 2012-04-23 12:18:43
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet driver (mlx4_en), mellanox mlx4 core vpi driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Tariq Toukan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Moving to interrupts instead of polling fpr TX completions
Avoiding situations where skb can be held in by the driver for
a long time (till timer expires).
The change is also necessary for supporting BQL.

Removing comp_lock that was required because we could handle TX
completions from several contexts: Interrupts, timer, polling.
Now there is only interrupts
