Ok - ran alt1 and alt2, both with MMAP, no DMAR and disable_msi. Both
seem to behave similarly. No logged errors; large numbers of dropped RX
packets. One odd thing: when driving every sort of traffic through, I
was able to hose the client adapter (win7) repeatedly by runnnig the
win7 backup and connecting Windows Media Player to a Mediatomb stream
while also running a remote X11 session. Looks like the SSDP traffic
that occurs at the same time as the SMB traffic and X11 traffic takes
out the adapter on Win7 - Nforce.
Reran with msi enabled, MMAP and no DMAR. Also no errors; much faster,
and the Win7 side survives the same conditions that don't work when msi
is disabled. Doesn't make sense to me, but it is what it is.

Going to leave this up for a while and see if things remain functional.
