  Log:
  From the PR:
  
    The receive function em_process_receive_interrupts() unlocks the
    adapter while ether_input() processes the packet, and then locks
    it back. In the meantime, em_init() may be called, either from
    em_watchdog() from softclock interrupt or from the ifconfig(8)
    program. The em_init() resets the card, in particular it sets
    adapter->next_rx_desc_to_check to 0 and resets hardware RX Head
    and Tail descriptor pointers. The loop in
    em_process_receive_interrupts() does not expect these things to
    change, and a mess may result.
  
  This fixes long wedges of em(4) interfaces receive part under high
  load and IP fastforwarding enabled.
