Recent changes to the driver for the new napi API broke the reception of

leaving the value zero.

Tested NAPI and non-NAPI on x86_64.

In general, we're hoping to remove as many CONFIG_FOO_NAPI as possible, pushing everybody towards using NAPI.

Any objection to heading in this direction with pcnet32?
