[net-next-2.6 PATCH 1/8] vxge: Fix a receive stall due to driver being out of synch with chip.

[net-next-2.6 PATCH 1/8] vxge: Fix a receive stall due to driver being out of synch with chip.

[Sreenivasa Honnur]

- Fix a receive stall due to driver being out of synch with chip. In a corner 
case scenario the adapter's ring controller may return a RxD with transfer code
of 0xC, while the host ownership bit is still set to the adapter. The driver 
needs to assume that this case where (host_ownership == 1 or adapter) and 
(transfer_code == 0xC) is valid, that is, this RxD has been returned by the 
receive ring controller but no frame data is associated with the rxd.

- Restore the transfer code field of each newly replenished RxD to 0x0. 

- Code cleanup. Removed usage of magic numbers.
