Subject: [PATCH 4.4 37/46] r8152: re-schedule napi for tx

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

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

From: hayeswang <hayeswang@...ltek.com>


[ Upstream commit 248b213ad908b88db15941202ef7cb7eb137c1a0 ]

Re-schedule napi after napi_complete() for tx, if it is necessay.

In r8152_poll(), if the tx is completed after tx_bottom() and before
napi_complete(), the scheduling of napi would be lost. Then, no
one handles the next tx until the next napi_schedule() is called.
