I applied the em-patch that was announced a few days ago to two
servers with an Intel em-gbit-nic resetting during load. It's only
been running for one day so I don't know whether my problem is gone.
But so far I haven't seen any regression. The servers are connected to
a Dell-switch.

Applied to RELENG_5_4 and the i386- and amd64-port.
