forcedeth: msi interrupts
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add a workaround for lost MSI interrupts.  There is a race condition in
the HW in which future interrupts could be missed.  The workaround is to
toggle the MSI irq mask.

Added cleanup based on comments from Andrew Morton.
