  Modified files:
    sys/pci              if_rl.c if_rlreg.h 
  Log:
  Make some tweaks to the RealTek driver:
  
  - Fix a bug in rl_rxeof() handler: in the case where the packet wraps
    from the end of the receive buffer back to the beginning, we need to
    insure that at least sizeof(ether_header) bytes make it into the first
    mbuf. If we don't, then doing eh = mtod(m, struct ether_header *)
    loses. To avoid this, we use m_pullup() to suck at least MHLEN -
    RL_ETHER_ALIGN bytes into the first mbuf, which should also help
    small packets fit into a single mbuf.

  - Make the transmit threshold autotuning: start off with a small value
    and jack it up when TX underruns are detected.
  
  - Also improve TX error recovery: kick the chip in the head with a
    reset/init sequence to make sure it recovers afer a transmit error.
