    forcedeth: limit tx to 16 · 3b446c3e

    This is a critical patch which adds a workaround for a HW bug. The patch
    will limit the number of outstanding tx packets to 16. Otherwise, the HW
    could send out packets with bad checksums.
    
    The driver will still setup the tx packets into the ring, however, will
    only set the Valid bit on 16 packets at a time.
