While commit d36deae75011 ("qdio: extend API to allow polling") enhanced
the qdio layer so that drivers can poll their Input Queues, we don't
have the corresponding infrastructure for Output Queues yet.
Factor out a helper that scans a single QDIO Queue, so that qeth can
implement TX NAPI on top of it.
While doing so, remove the duplicated tracking of the next-to-scan index
(q->first_to_check vs q->first_to_kick) in this code path.
qdio_handle_aobs() needs to move slightly upwards in the code hierarchy,
so that it's still called from the polling path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
