After a day of stress testing the machine haven't got errors, interrupt
storms or interface up/down problems. Everything seems fine.
I'll continue stress testing the machine during the weekend, but
i would say that this time it's fixed.

Seems lately there have been a lot of testing of this driver. Is
there any chance of it being on 7.1 or being MFCed after the release
to RELENG_7?

Thanks a lot.
Regards.
