The only part that can be irrelevant is the delay-work scheme from the ISR.

The txTimeoutTask is required as the chipset can stall and must be reset.
This was in the original driver for a reason, albeit implemented via
schedule_work. If you remove it the driver may mis-behave as badly as the
old eepro driver.
