This is what I meant:

rx = (status & RX) && napi_schedule_prep(rx_napi);
tx = (status & TX) && napi_schedule_prep(tx_napi);

if (rx || tx) {
spin_lock()
disable_irq(priv, rx, tx);
spin_unlock();
if (rx)
__napi_schedule_irqoff(rx_napi)
if (tx)
__napi_schedule_irqoff(tx_napi)
}

I don't understand what you're saying.

Drivers are expected to stop their queues at the end of xmit routine if
the ring can't accommodate another frame. It's more efficient to stop
the queues early than have to put skbs already dequeued from the qdisc
layer back into the qdiscs.
