Packet sending is driven by two flags, tx_ready and tx_queued.
It was possible, that there were queued data for sending and
hardware was flagged as blocked but in fact it was not.
The tx_queued was indicator but should be really a counter else
first fragmented packet resets tx_queued flag, but there may be
pending packets which do not get sent.
New semantics:
tx_ready - set, if hw is ready to send packet, no packet is being
transferred right now
set the flag right at the place where data are copied
into hw memory and not earlier without checking if it
was succesful
tx_queued - count of enqueued packets, including fragments

The device is manufactured by IPWireless. In some countries (for
example Czech Republic, T-Mobile ISP) this card is shipped for service
called UMTS 4G.
It's a piece of PCMCIA "4G" UMTS PPP networking hardware that presents
itself as a serial character device (i.e. looks like usual modem to
userspace, accepts AT commands, etc).
