nve0: device timeout

[Nathan Whitehorn]

There is currently a fix in -CURRENT for this, which I believe will be
merged into the RELENG_6 branch in a little less than 2 weeks. If you go
onto cvsweb.freebsd.org and grab the new src/sys/dev/nve/if_nve.c and
overwrite the current one with it, the problem should go away.

Let me know if it works, and especially let me know if you encounter any
problems.
