So, uh.. This patch is from Javier, but was originally written by
Ashish? Did I get the attribution right? :)
Is this simply a workaround to make the driver more reliable with the
(broken) p0 firmware, or is it an actual fix (ie, is the proper
behavior to be returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY rather than dropping packets)?
