Hm, that should be using ptr_ring_full() shouldn't it? So...

That doesn't seem to make much difference at all; it's still dropping a
lot of packets because ptr_ring_produce() is returning non-zero.

Making it call netif_stop_queue() when ptr_ring_produce() fails causes
it to perform even worse...

At this point I'm mostly just confused.
