Modified files:
sys/net if_loop.c
Log:
Always queue looped back packets (rather than potentially using
direct dispatch) to avoid extensive kernel stack usage and to
avoid directly re-entering the network stack. The latter causes
locking problems when, for example, a complete TCP handshake`
happens w/o a context switch.
