Using the same test with tcpperf running on one console and a flood
ping on a second, the system lasted 7 minutes before meta->skb was
NULL. The data are:

b43: meta data: skb              (null)
                dmaaddr          000000004fa820bc
                is_last_fragment 1
b43: ring data: nr_slots       256
                used_slots     205
                current_slot   105
                index          1
                tx             1
                max_used_slots 256

Notice that the DMA queue is not even close to full - there are about
50 slots left or enough space for 25 more packets.

This error was generated with the DMA queue full patch applied.
