There are no qdiscs involved at this stage, as we need to preserve
packet ordering in most cases. The route output functions will end up
in a dev_queue_xmit, so any tx error would have been decoupled from the
route output at that stage.

I'm happy to do the exploring myself if you don't have strong opinions
on an implementation.

Cheers,
