skfp_ctl_set_mac_address() calls ResetAdapter() unconditionally, without
checking netif_running(). ResetAdapter() first calls card_stop(), which
sets smc->hw.hw_state to STOPPED, and then mac_drv_clear_tx_queue(),
which walks the two transmit queues:

	for (i = QUEUE_S; i <= QUEUE_A0; i++) {
		queue = smc->hw.fp.tx[i] ;
		...
		t = queue->tx_curr_get ;
