Subject: [net-next PATCH 2/2] drivers: net: ethernet: davinci_emac: use netif_wake_queue() while restarting tx queue

To restart tx queue use netif_wake_queue() intead of netif_start_queue()
so that net schedule will restart transmission immediately which will
increase network performance while doing huge data transfers.
