netmap's generic mode tries to improve performance by minimizing mbuf
allocations. In service of this goal, it maintains an extra reference
to the mbuf and polls the counter to see if the driver has released its
reference by calling m_freem(). As a result, the extref destructor is
not called when expected by the netfront driver, and mbufs tags are not
freed.
Modify the tx path to release its mbuf tags promptly when reclaiming tx
descriptors. They are drawn from a fixed-size pool, so otherwise are
quickly exhausted when a netfront interface is in netmap generic mode.
