Subject: [PATCH 2/3] r8169: Use dev_kfree_skb in Tx cleanup path

This change replaces the use of either dev_kfree_skb_any or
dev_consume_skb_any in the Tx cleanup path of this driver with
dev_kfree_skb.  There isn't any need for the "_any" version of these
functions since the NAPI cleanup context is not a hard irq context.

This change allows us to drop one function call from the clean-up path
since dev_kfree_skb_any was just calling into dev_kfree_skb in these paths
anyway.
