[PATCH] IB/ipath: fix lost interrupts on HT-400

Do an extra check to see if in-memory tail changed while processing packets,
and if so, going back through the loop again (but only once per call to
ipath_kreceive()).  In practice, this seems to be enough to guarantee that if
we crossed the clearing of an interrupt at start of ipath_intr with a
scheduled tail register update, that we'll process the "extra" packet that
lost the interrupt because we cleared it just as it was about to arrive.
