perf top showed that 10% of the cpu time was spent on the memcpy used to
populate the fifo when the device is under high load. There is no apparent
benefit from using a fifo so lets just drop it.

Very interesting, so a compiler zeroes memory from stack faster than
memset() from "heap" (or whatever kmalloced memory should be called)?
Just out of curiosity, any ideas why memset() is so slow?
Also some kind of numbers (before and after) would be nice to have in
the commit log. It's not uncommon that years after we investigate why a
certain change was made.

Delay in reaping tx completion desc from hw ring could trigger
backpressure on tx completion ring which could result
in target assert. Extensive testing with this change is required to make
sure this change does not cause any issue.
