As you can see here, the driver has caught up with the hardware's
status tag of 0x21 and tx consumer of 0x2c.  However, the tx producer
is at 0x135, way ahead of the consumer.  The hardware is not
completing all these TX BDs from 0x2c to 0x135.

I checked a few of the status registers related to the TX blocks and
the read DMA engine status and they are all ok.  The hardware sees the
tx producer of 0x135.

Even the internal host coalescing is seeing 0x135 as the tx index.
Somehow this is not DMA'ed to the host.

Do you have IOMMU enabled?  Does the same NIC used to work with a
different kernel?
