New Revision: 236599
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/236599

Log:
  Mostly revert previous commit(s).  After doing a bunch of local testing,
  it turns out that it negatively affects performance.  I'm stil investigating
  exactly why deferring the IO causes such negative TCP performance but
  doesn't affect UDP preformance.
  
  Leave the ath_tx_kick() change in there however; it's going to be useful
  to have that there for if_transmit() work.
