This reverts commit 4ae0169fd1b3c792b66be58995b7e6b629919ecf.
This change in the handling of the coalesce timer is causing regression on
(at least) amlogic platforms.
Network will break down very quickly (a few seconds) after starting
a download. This can easily be reproduced using iperf3 for example.
The problem has been reported on the S805, S905, S912 and A113 SoCs
(Realtek and Micrel PHYs) and it is likely impacting all Amlogics
platforms using Gbit ethernet
No problem was seen with the platform using 10/100 only PHYs (GXL internal)
Reverting change brings things back to normal and allows to use network
again until we better understand the problem with the coalesce timer.

This is cutting down performance. Once the timer is armed it should run
after the time expires for the first packet sent and not the last one.
After this change, running iperf, the performance gain is +/- 24%.
