I handle this TX problem by storing the last sent pbuf in the ethernetif
structure, which is NULL at first.  When I get the next TX interrupt and
this last pbuf pointer isn't NULL, I pbuf_free it.  Then of course the one
I'm sending becomes the new previous one.  This works because I know when I
get the next TX interrupt the previous TX pbuf has to have been completely
sent.
