[patch] Fix tg3 driver disable interrupts bug for realtime-preempt-2.6.12-rc1-V0.7.41-14

[Guillaume Foliard]

Hi,

I just noticed you've accepted a patch from Yang Yi dealing with interrupts
in the e1000 drivers on a PREEMPT_RT kernel. I did not yet understood the
problem but I blindly applied the same fix on the tg3 driver to get rid of the
following message :

network driver disabled interrupts: tg3_start_xmit+0x0/0x620
