Add a tunable/sysctl "hw.fxp_noflow" which disables flow control support
on if_fxp cards. When flow control is enabled, if the operating system doesn't acknowledge the packet buffer filling, the card will begin to generate ethernet quench packets, but appears to get into a feedback loop of some sort, hosing local switches. This is a temporary workaround for 5.1: the ability to configure flow control should probably be exposed by some or another management interface on ethernet link layer devices.
