Subject: [RFC] virtio_net: Adding tx_timeout function.

virtio_net paravirtualized driver does not have a tx_timeout() function to
guarantee that the driver will recover properly after receiving a timeout
during a transmission of a packet. This patch add this feature and throw a
timeout exception after 5 HZ. Considering some tests, this is the best
time to use here.
