Instead the queue should be stopped after a packet is added to the TX ring when there may not be enough room for an additional one. Also, when TX ring entries are completed, we should only wake the queue if we know there is room for another full maximally fragmented packet. Print a warning if there is insufficient space at the start of start_xmit, since this should no longer happen. Combined with increasing the default TX ring size (in a subsequent patch), this appears to recover the TX performance lost by previous changes to actually manage the TX ring state properly.
