[PATCH net 2/2] Revert "r8169: make use of xmit_more and __netdev_sent_queue"

[Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com>]

This reverts commit 2e6eedb4813e34d8d84ac0eb3afb668966f3f356.

Sander reported a regression [1], therefore let's revert these commits.
Removal of the barriers doesn't seem to contribute to the issue, the
patch just overlaps with the problematic one and reverting
"r8169: make use of xmit_more and __netdev_sent_queue" only wasn't
tested.
