Use the right counter. BSY conditions happen when the SoC is under performance stress. Doing *more* work in stress situations by trying to schedule NAPI is not a good idea as the stressed system becomes still more stressed. The Rx interrupt is already at work making sure the NAPI is scheduled. So calling gfar_receive() here does not help. This issue was present since day 1.
