Under certain low traffic conditions, the single core
devices with multiple Rx/Tx queues (MQ mode) may reach
soft lockup due to gfar_poll not returning in proper time.
The following exception was obtained using iperf on a 100Mbit
half-duplex link, for a p1010 single core device:

To prevent this, the outer while() loop has been removed
allowing gfar_poll() to return faster even if there's
still budget left.  Also, there's no need to recompute
the budget per Rx queue anymore.
