It's been running for about 1:23 on the patched driver.  I'm still
seeing the com_no_buffers increase:

[firewall2.jnb1] ~ # sysctl dev.bce |grep com_no_buffers
dev.bce.0.com_no_buffers: 5642
dev.bce.1.com_no_buffers: 497
dev.bce.2.com_no_buffers: 6260612
dev.bce.3.com_no_buffers: 4871338

Interupt rate is down now, at about 3500 per second per interface.

Interestingly setting net.inet.ip.fastforwarding=0 reduces CPU
consumption from 25% to 9% and less packet loss.
