    iflib: clear the deferred TX descriptor state when a queue is stopped
    
    Stopping an interface frees the queued mbufs and zeroes a transmit
    queue's descriptor accounting, but the three counters that track
    descriptors deferred to a later doorbell write or report-status
    request are not cleared there: they only reach zero when the code
    that acts on them runs.  After a reset they therefore describe
    descriptors that no longer exist, until enough new traffic flushes
    them.
    
    The consequences are small - one doorbell written from a stale
    count, and a report-status request on the first packet after the
    reset - but the state is simply wrong, and the transmit-hang check
    in iflib_timer() reads one of them.
