Subject: [PATCH net-next] r8169: remove nr_frags argument from
 rtl_tx_slots_avail

The only time when nr_frags isn't SKB_MAX_FRAGS is when entering
rtl8169_start_xmit(). However we can use SKB_MAX_FRAGS also here
because when queue isn't stopped there should always be room for
MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 descriptors.
