Subject: [ 11/27] 8139cp: reset BQL when ring tx ring cleared

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: stephen hemminger <stephen@...workplumber.org>

[ Upstream commit 98962baad72fd6d393bf39dbb7c2076532c363c6 ]

This patch cures transmit timeout's with DHCP observed
while running under KVM. When the transmit ring is cleaned out,
the Byte Queue Limit values need to be reset.
