if_sk patch to get more info from people with problems

[Peter Edwards]

Ok, I don't have this hardware, but dumb question:

A (very) quick look at the source reveals that buffers are allocated
via  sk_rxeof()->sk_newbuf()->sk_jalloc() in the interrupt receive
function, with the softc lock held in sk_rxeof().

They're freed by the mbuf system via a call to sk_jfree(), but that
doesn't hold the SK_LOCK. Is this possibly the source of the
corruption problems? What am I missing?
This compiles, anyway :-)
