I'm assuming the driver will simply leave excess packets in the
blist for the next run. The check for tx_queue_len is wrong though,
its only a default which can be overriden and some qdiscs don't
care for it at all.

And the patches should really be restructured so this change is
in the same patch changing the header and the caller, for example.
