    pcnet: force ordering of descriptor accesses · 6fb49e4a

    The ordering of accesses to the rx & tx descriptors is important, yet
    the send & recv functions accessed them via regular structure accesses.
    This leaves the compiler with the opportunity to reorder those accesses
    or to hoist them outside of loops. Prevent that from happening by using
    readl & writel to access the descriptors. As a nice bonus, this removes
    the need for the driver to care about endianness.
