This user was able to eliminate the tx hang problem with htb QoS by
disabling TSO.  We also have some reports of xen hangs when TSO is
enabled as well.  Not sure if they are related.

At this point this user has a workaround.  We will continue to try to
reproduce here to see if we can root cause the hardware issue, but we
haven't had any luck so far.
