Hmm, so I have yet to test this, but I found several bugs related to transmit in em(4) and igb(4) recently just reading the code. (Mostly unnecessary scheduling of tasks for transmit.) I've included your change of restarting TX when link becomes active. I've also updated it to fix resume for em and igb to DTRT when buf_ring is used, and to not include old-style start routines at all when using multiq.
