[PATCH] sis900: fix TX completion

[PATCH] sis900: fix TX completion

[Sergej Benilov]

Since commit 605ad7f184b60cfaacbc038aa6c55ee68dee3c89 "tcp: refine TSO autosizing",
outbound throughput is dramatically reduced for some connections, as sis900
is doing TX completion within idle states only.

Make TX completion happen after every transmitted packet.

Test:
netperf

before patch:
> netperf -H remote -l -2000000 -- -s 1000000
