Status on igb crash

[Eric Joyner]

Hi Alexandre,

We didn't put the fix into the repository because we think it would have
had a significant impact on throughput. It fixed a crash, but that gotcha
could potentially annoy everyone else using the driver who wasn't
experiencing the same type of crash. That said, I'm going to look into that
performance impact, and will try to submit a patch later without one.
