Subject: cns3xxx: ethernet - revert: clean up tx descs only when needed
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2603c9045db890cf52d347419d97e775db3b45ab;p=openwrt%2Fsvn-archive%2Fopenwrt.git

cns3xxx: ethernet - revert: clean up tx descs only when needed

This reverts commit 0772ab938c0aedd7f4cc7127059d6ce8cf929dfa.

Trying to optimize calls to eth_complete_tx in this fasion causes a regression
where when sending only the tx queue can get disabled until a packet is
received. This original call to eth_schedule_poll() is scheduled so it
should not cause a performance issue.
