The Tx coalescing support in the driver was a software implementation for something lacking in the hardware. Using hrtimers, the idea was to trigger a timer interrupt after having queued a packet for transmit. Unfortunately, as the timer value was lowered, the timer expired before the hardware actually did the transmit and so it was racey and resulted in unnecessary interrupts. Remove the Tx coalescing support and hrtimer and replace with a Tx timer that is used as a reclaim timer in case of inactivity.
