Ok, made a new version: https://pastebin.com/3FUUrg7C
It is much simpler and is very close to your patch now.

All previous conditional defines are eliminated along with unnecessary 
code fragments, and here is TUNE8139_BIG_LOOP to introduce a top-level 
loop in poll function as you suggested above. But apparently it works 
well both with and without this loop. At least my testing did not show 
any substantial difference in performance. Therefore I think it could be 
completely removed for the sake of simplicity.

One problem though is the kernel now always throws a traceback shortly 
after communication start:
https://pastebin.com/VhwQ8wsU
According to system.map it likely points to __local_bh_endble_ip() and 
there is one WARN_ON_ONCE() in it indeed, but I have no idea what it is 
and how to fix it.

Yet another thing is that tp->rx_lock and tp->lock are now used within 
poll function in a way that possibly suggests one of them could be 
eliminated.


Thank you,

Regards,
Nikolai
