[net-next-2.6 PATCH] e1000e: flow control doesn't re-enable

[Jeff Kirsher]

From: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@intel.com>

When changing flow control (pause) parameters, the flow control thresholds
(i.e. when to send XON/XOFF frames) may not be setup correctly on parts
with copper media.  Call the existing e1000_set_fc_watermarks()
function to set these thresholds.
