Log: Don't free the work queue entry that we're using to hold the scatter-gather list on exit from the transmit path. The scatter-gather list itself can be asynchronously DMAed to the transmit hardware, and we could actually lock up the transmitter if any of a number of races around this were lost. Instead, let the PKO free the scatter-gather list when it is done with it, and use the "i" bit in each segment of the packet to avoid having them go into the FPA. This fixes an unrecoverable transmit stall under transmit load.
