Thank you!

Some people are seeing occasional hangs. It's been observed that
systat reports no interrupts on iwx0 when this happens. I know that
the Linux driver has workarounds for "stuck queues". It looks like
we will need to apply those as well.

Another symptom I've seen is SSH failing to connect part way through
because packets with the TCP_NODELAY option were sent to a Tx agg
queue that was stuck, while other packets made it out. This is quite
confusing: ping and tcbench of any packet size are working, but ssh
hangs as if there was some MTU issue. People might end up wasting
time trying to debug their network and pf when they run into this.

So my position is that the patch we have now is stable enough to be
committed to -current and improved further over the course of the
next release cycle. I would not put it into the 7.0 release, though.
