One of my buddies is having panics with if_em after the last
set of changes a couple of weeks ago. He runs dhclient
on the interface to get a lease from a cable modem. The
panic is a recurse on a non-recursive mutex. I haven't
gotten a traceback from him yet, but a little perusing
through the source seems to show this as a possible problem:

}
Also, indentation is inconsistent, some lines use tabs, some
uses spaces. It looks like the original code from Intel used
spaces and subsequent mods used tabs. I guess we should be
sticking with the original style, but it is easy to overlook.
