When the transmit queue gets full we enable interrupts for TX completions
There was a race that we handled the TX queue both from the interrupt context
and from the transmit function. Using "spin_trylock_irq()" ensures this
doesn't happen.

Napi structures are being created each time we open a port, but when
the port is closed the napi structure is only disabled but not removed.
This bug caused hang while removing the driver.

Remove the return after the goto.  We want the goto because it frees
memory as well as returning err.

If creating a workqueue fails, don't jump to the error path where that
same workqueue is destroyed, since destroy_workqueue() can't handle a
NULL pointer.

The per ring counters are implemented in SW. Now moving to have the total
counters as the sum of all rings. This way the numbers will always be consistent
and we no longer depend on HW buffer size limitations for those counters
that can be insufficient in some cases.
