Please apply and forward upstream. This patch requires the previous
sequence of 4 spidernet patches to be applied.

The recent set of low-waterark patches for the spider result in a
significant amount of computing being done in an interrupt context.
This patch moves this to a "bottom half" aka work queue, so that
the code runs in a normal kernel context. Curiously, this seems to result in a performance boost of about 5% for large packets.
