[intel] Profile common virtual machine operations

Operations which are negligible on physical hardware (such as issuing
a posted write to the transmit ring tail register) may involve
substantial amounts of processing within the hypervisor if running in
a virtual machine.

[intel] Push new RX descriptors in batches

Inside a virtual machine, writing the RX ring tail pointer may incur a
substantial overhead of processing inside the hypervisor.  Minimise
this overhead by writing the tail pointer once per batch of
descriptors, rather than once per descriptor.

Profiling under qemu-kvm (version 1.6.2) shows that this reduces the
amount of time taken to refill the RX descriptor ring by around 90%.
