Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 84/86] net: eth: altera: fix napi poll_list corruption

3.19.8-ckt9 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Atsushi Nemoto <nemoto@...hiba-tops.co.jp>

[ Upstream commit 4548a697e4969d695047cebd6d9af5e2f6cc728e ]

tse_poll() calls __napi_complete() with irq enabled.  This leads napi
poll_list corruption and may stop all napi drivers working.
Use napi_complete() instead of __napi_complete().
