Subject: [PATCH net] Revert "r8169: remove not needed call to
 dma_sync_single_for_device"

This reverts commit f072218cca5b076dd99f3dfa3aaafedfd0023a51.

As reported by Aaro this patch causes network problems on
MIPS Loongson platform. Therefore revert it.

This fix doesn't apply cleanly on net-next, I'll provide a separate one for net-next.
