Subject: [PATCH v7 04/11] net: pch_gbe: Remove irq_sem

The pch_gbe driver uses an irq_sem variable to implement a sempahore
that seems to inconsistently count the number of times we enable or
disable interrupts, and only write to the interrupt enable register when
this count hits 0. This makes absolutely no sense to me, both from the
perspective of how the implementation is modifying the variable & more
fundamentally the fact that we know when we want or do not want
interrupts enabled without any need for the semaphore.

This patch removes irq_sem, so pch_gbe_irq_enable() &
pch_gbe_irq_disable() will both always write to the INT_EN register.
