This part of Realtek's driver(s) is not too tricky (I wonder if some code is
there by design or accident but it is a different story).
I do not feel safe with the TxDescUnavail bit : the driver does not
explicitely do anything to handle it but the behavior of the driver
can change depending on it. :o/
