Fix Emulex "oce" driver in CURRENT

Hello,
I had problems during some experiments with Emulex and "oce" driver in
CURRENT.
I found several bugs in the "oce" driver and this patch fixes them.

- oce_multiq_start(): if the link is down returns ENXIO without consuming
the mbuf.
  A trivial fix is to remove the initial error check, since
oce_multiq_transmit() which is
  called next handles the link down situation correctly.
- oce_multiq_transmit(): there is an extra call to drbr_enqueue() causing
the
  mbuf to be enqueued twice when the NIC's queue is full.
- oce_multiq_transmit(): same problem fixed recently in ixgbe (r267187) and
other drivers:
  if the mbuf is enqueued, the proper return value is 0

This patch has been reviewed by luigi (in cc).

If someone could have a look on this and give me some feedback it would be
great.

Regards,
Stefano Garzarella
