From printk I added to e1000e, it looks like I have bad offsets
somehow. I'll try clearing check as well, however.

I do plan to look at this...but need to make sure I can get similar
features before I ditch pktgen. It's not just raw throughput that is
of interest to me, but also randomizing, sequential, etc header fields
to test various network equipment (routers, MAC tables in switches, etc).
