Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports seen at half duplex.
This had the effect of overriding user set values on link change/reset. Testing shows that
adjusting only the timeout factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.

Based on e1000e patch by Franco Fichtner <franco@lastsummer.de>
