- When setting up a packet for transmit, if we the tx ring is over half

full, kick the binary blob to force it to complete any pending tx
  completions.
- In the watchdog routine, only reset the chip if the blob doesn't complete
  any pending tx completions rather than requiring it to complete all of
  the pending tx completions.
