New Revision: 285973
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/285973

Log:
  - Avoid lock contention in the if_transmit callback by using trylock and
   enqueueing the frames when it fails. This way there is some latency
   removed from the transmitting path.
  - If IFF_DRV_OACTIVE is set (and also if IFF_DRV_RUNNING is not) just
   enqueue the desired frames and return successful transmit. This way we
   avoid to return errors on transmit side and resulting in
   possible out-of-order frames. Please note that IFF_DRV_OACTIVE is set
   everytime we get the threshold ring hit, so this can be happening quite
   often.
