dev_queue_xmit_nit() is called before attempting to send packet to device.
If device could not accept the packet (hard_start_xmit() returns an error),
packet is requeued and retried later.
each retry means call ev_queue_xmit_nit() again, so tcpdump/sniffers can 'see' packet transmited several times.
This should only happen with LLTX drivers. In fact, LLTX drivers are
really more trouble than they're worth. They should all be rewritten
to follow the model used in tg3.
When did tg3 model changed exactly ?
Because I remember having this 'problem' with tg3 devices not a long time ago...
