I empathize but take a closer look; seems mostly useless.

I thought E1000 still uses LLTX, and if so then multiple cpus
can most definitely get into the ->hard_start_xmit() in parallel.

Not with how the qdisc status protects it today:

include/net/pkt_sched.h:

static inline void qdisc_run(struct net_device *dev)
{
        if (!netif_queue_stopped(dev) &&
            !test_and_set_bit(__LINK_STATE_QDISC_RUNNING,

&dev->state))

                __qdisc_run(dev);
}
