Consistent Packet Loss on DL NIC

Thanks for the logs. Obviously you should not be losing packets. We're updating the Ethernet driver to be more performant. During the development of this a few bugs have been discovered and fixed that could cause issues. It could cause packet drop when interacting with some particular network switches.

Hopefully the Ethernet in 7.2, released at the end of the month will eliminate these issues. Testing internally so far is going well.
