netxen: napi and irq cleanup
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.
