You shouldn't limit the number of serviced packets to budget for Tx
NAPI.

why do you check if the interface is running?
If a packet arrives, it means the interface is running..

Do not stop the queue on DMA errors. If the queue is empty nothing
will wake it up. Queue should only be stopped based on occupancy.
