Backport of commit c59697e06058fc2361da8cefcfa3de85ac107582

This patch restores a couple of workarounds from 2.6.16:
 * restart transmit moderation timer in case it expires during IRQ routine
 * default to having 10 HZ watchdog timer.
At this point it more important not to hang than to worry about the
power cost.
