net: fs_enet: Add NAPI TX
When using a MPC8xx as a router, 'perf' shows a significant time spent in
fs_enet_interrupt() and fs_enet_start_xmit().
'perf annotate' shows that the time spent in fs_enet_start_xmit is indeed spent
between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in
interrupt handling. This is due to the TX complete interrupt that fires after
each transmitted packet.
This patch modifies the handling of TX complete to use NAPI.
With this patch, my NAT router offers a throughput improved by 21%
Original performance:
[root@localhost tmp]# scp toto pgs:/tmp
toto 100% 256MB 2.8MB/s 01:31
Performance with the patch:
[root@localhost tmp]# scp toto pgs:/tmp
toto 100% 256MB 3.4MB/s 01:16
