[PATCH] ethernet:arc: Move arc_emac_tx_clean() into arc_emac_tx() and disable tx interrupt

Doing tx_clean() inside poll() may scramble the tx ring buffer if 
tx() is running. This will cause tx to stop working, which can be
reproduced by simultaneously downloading two large files at high speed.

Moving tx_clean() into tx() will prevent this. And tx interrupt is no
longer needed now.
