The T3 is a very old chip that has been EoL'd for some time and it's not
likely to get native netmap support.
Your panic must be while using netmap's emulation mode on top of cxgb.
Try modifying check_pkt_coalesce() in the driver to always return 0 and
see if that avoids the panic. Don't expect much performance-wise even
if that works.
