From: Thommy Jakobsson <thommyj@gmail.com>

Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could
happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can
handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and
refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This
patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will
handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

Hi John,

patch for fixing problems seen on slow hardware and b43. Discussed at b43 
mailinglist and openwrt ticket system 
(https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/7552)

BR,
Thommy Jakobsson
