Perhaps something to do with dhclient ?

It doesnt seem to happen too much on releng7. I have been running
your driver from the download page for almost a week and it happens a
lot less than it does with the RELENG_6 version. I know in RELENG_6,
we periodically see the NIC wedge where it doesnt see incoming
traffic. Sending out a packet 'wakes it up again' and we see a
vr0: Using force reset command.
in the logs. Havent see that yet on the modified RELENG_7 version,
so so far so good! I will try it on a few more boxes and do some
more testing this week.
