 Update on this patch,
 
   After testing, the system every once in a while displays:
 
 bge1: watchdog timeout -- resetting
 bge1: link state changed to DOWN
 bge1: link state changed to UP
 
 The problem happens when there's a lot of disk and network
 traffic at the same time.  cvsup seems to cause it quite a
 bit.
 
 Others have noticed the same thing, see PR's kern/94863 
 (5714 controller), kern/92090 (unknown controller), kern/68351
 (5704 controller)
 
 I have found with the machine I'm testing with that plugging
 the Broadcom interface into a 10BaseT hub will make the
 problem go away.  Of course, the chip sets itself up as
 10BaseT, half-duplex then.
 
 Gleb Smirnoff stated in PR kern/68351 that he needs
 hardware to work on this.
