Changes in other networking paths uncovered a bug in the xircom_cb

  BUG eth1 code -5 qlen 0

It turned out that the driver returned -EIO when there was no
descriptor available for sending packets. It should return
NETDEV_TX_BUSY instead. This was discussed on the netdev list before,
see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/84603 .

Forgot to tell: the patch is against 2.6.24 but should apply cleanly to
the latest git kernel. The xircom_cb driver appears to be orphaned so
I've send the patch to you.

Yep, that's the right thing to do...
