Plain old TCP retransmit would be clobbered by such a thing. If it
happens anywhere, it seems like a pretty substantial bug to me.
Jim I would have to dig through my emails to find the reason. I coded
NFS to use desballoc but Peter Staubach pointed out that he had done
this in the past (he is the one who proposed desballoc) and ran into
this NIC bug and hence I was not allowed to putback.
