Patch: fix rotting packet OKI PCH_GBE switch

[Tom Walsh]

This is against torvalds 4.7.0 repo
This resolves a rotting SYN-ACK packet issue with
the OKI PCH_GBE switch.  The problem showed up
intermittently where a client would attempt to
establish a TCP connection to the host on an
otherwise quiet network.  No other activity had
occurred for a significant time.

This was a race condition that was finally duplicated
using a controlled set of timings between the SYN /
ACK / SYN-ACK sequence.  We found that by adjusting
the timing between the host ACK and the client
transmission of the SYN-ACK that we had the SYN-ACK
"stuck" in the switch data register.

The problem is that pch_gbe_irq_enable() is called
when the transmit of the ACK has completed, then
pch_gbe_irq_enable() will enable the interrupts of
the switch, followed by a read of the INT_ST which
results in clearing the status bits.

While the device would still issue an interrupt,
the pch_gbe_intr() handler would not see any pending
requests as the status register had been cleared.
Thus, the packet remains "stuck".
