There was an off-by-one bug in bnx2_tx_avail(). If the tx ring is completely full, the producer and consumer indices may be apart by 256 even though the ring size is only 255. One entry in the ring is unused and must be properly accounted for when calculating the number of available entries. The bug caused the tx ring entries to be reused by mistake, overwriting active entries, and ultimately causing it to crash. This bug rarely occurs because the tx ring is rarely completely full. We always stop when there is less than MAX_SKB_FRAGS entries available in the ring.
