netxen: optimize tx handling
netxen driver allows limited number of threads simultaneously posting
skb's in tx ring. If transmit slot is unavailable, driver calls
schedule() or loops in xmit_frame().
This patch returns TX_BUSY and lets the stack reschedule the packet if
transmit slot is unavailable. Also removes unnecessary check for tx
timeout in the driver itself, the network stack does that anyway.
