Ok, this is looking solid with this mornings tree. Tested on a dual core
xeon with e1000 (LLTX) and a dual core opteron with tg3 (non-LLTX).
About 100 million packets from udp full throttle on all 4 cpus; i tried
pulling cables etc while doing this to generate extrenous interupts and
didnt see any issues.

Shall i submit the patch?
