mv643xx_eth: get rid of receive-side locking
By having the receive out-of-memory handling timer schedule the napi poll handler and then doing oom processing from the napi poll handler, all code that touches receive state moves to napi context, letting us get rid of all explicit locking in the receive paths since the only mutual exclusion we need anymore at that point is protection against reentering ourselves, which is provided by napi synchronisation.
