    Interesting. This shouldn't do anything. If there is a TX operation in
    progress then ->start_tx() will simply return and the xmit buffer will
    be send once the current TX operation completes.

    Is there anything I can do to reproduce this behavior?
    This problem only pops-up if you use DMA. With disabled DMA you don't
    see this, right?

    Sebastian
