reintroduce tx mitigation

to quote the previous commit:

> if less than 4 packets get queued, the start routine is called from
> a task in a softnet tq.

this was backed out because of a race in the net80211 stack that
anton@ hit. mpi@ committed a workaround for it in revision 1.30 of
src/sys/net80211/ieee80211_pae_output.c.

im putting this in again so we can see what breaks next.
