 Otherwise this PR will never be closed and makes no sense, I'm afraid.

 Only this? Or more other 8139C+ fixes?
 Is it a good idea to pull all fixes blindly?
 
 Anyway please also see recent posts on tech-kern and tech-net.
 yamt said that hw ip4csum bug only happens with
 very small packet (less than ETHER_PAD_LEN) so FreeBSD's
 fix is not right. Furthermore, they choose to copy small packets
 to a new mbuf for padding, and several people object it.
