I should point out that Cathy Zhou has found a limitation with the current
design while working on moving ibd(7D) to GLDv3.  Specifically, with its
transmit entrypoint, there are three conditions that need to be
differentiated:

        1. A packet was accepted for transmission.
        2. A packet was not accepted due to temporary resource exhaustion.
        3. A packet was not accepted for other reasons, and will never
           be accepted.

Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to differentiate all three
cases in the current interface for mi_tx().
