I don't get this comment and why this isn't part of patch 1.
Patch 1 is the place where the stop is removed:

-	if (tc6->disable_traffic || tc6->waiting_tx_skb) {
-		netif_stop_queue(tc6->netdev);
-		return NETDEV_TX_BUSY;
-	}

Also the "vendor code may inadvertently enable the queue"
is some vague indication of a race? I have no idea what "vendor code"
means here, this "library" has one user. If there is a race please fix
it. If there's not - please don't add confusing comments.
