I don't know exactly what happened, but I know it indicates there was
some kind of an error when transmitting a packet.  The condition that
triggers the message is that TCR_PTX bit (bit 0) in the packet status
is 0, which means transmission didn't complete without errors.

I don't know much about SONIC chip or sn driver, but it looks
collisions are handled separately, so this error probably doesn't
indicate a collision.
