So, here are the checks I've tried in gfar_start_xmit():

BUG_ON(skb->len > DEFAULT_RX_BUFFER_SIZE)

BUG_ON(skb->len > priv->regs->maxfrm)

Neither produces a bug check yet ethtool reports non-zero
tx-babbling-errors. The last check appears to be the definition of
tx-babbling-errors. Is there a transmit path that I have missed?
