Hmm, I don't understand why you'd ever invoke if_snd_tag_free from anything
but 'tag->ifp' rather than some other ifp.  What if the route for a connection
moves so that a tag allocated on cc0 is now on a route that goes over em0?
You can't expect em0 to have an if_snd_tag_free routine that will know to
go invoke cxgbe's snd_tag_free.  I think you should always be using
'tag->ifp->if_snd_tag_free' to free tags and never using any other ifp.

That is, I think this should be reverted and that instead you need to fix
the code invoking if_snd_tag_free to invoke it on the tag's ifp instead of
some random other ifp.
