This fix attempts to solve a customer reported issue with NAPI enabled
e1000 having bad performance when transmitting simultaneously on
four ports. The issue comes down to an interaction between NAPI
hardware interrupt balancing, and the driver rescheduling poll on
the same processor.
We try to fix by allowing the driver to re-enable interrupts sooner
instead of polling one more time, when there was recently all the
work completed in cleanup.
