I wonder if we need to worry about propagating values up from the sub-if's
- Setting the default in if.c means this is set for all if's, and it's a
simple 1 line code change.  If a specific 'if' needs a different value, it
can be set before ether_attach() is called.

I'm more concerned with the equation we use to calculate if_hw_tsomax - Are
we considering the right variables? Are we thinking on the wrong OSI layer
for headers?
