But ethernet and system still be alive. In sometime,the issue
will cause system hang like "nfs: server 10.192.242.179 not 
responding, still trying".

The root cause is tx buffer descriptors are not cleaned when
ethernet resume back.

Where is this git located?

Troy's branch (located in github) works fine for me. I've kept it for a 
long run with heavy network load. Should I encounter some errors, I'll 
post back.
