Using the default NUM_XMIT_BUFFS = 1, there's only one transmit buffer.
Hence accessing the second buffer is an out-of-bounds access.
Print the command status of the first NOP buffer instead.

Fortunately this actually worked fine, as the layout of transmit and NOP
buffers is sufficiently similar.

Three more CPP directives in a DEBUG ifdef'd piece of code, yuck.

I'd say just kill this whole DEBUG section entirely.  If people
want this driver to print this debugging, do it properly with
netif_err() or similar.

Yeah, this driver could use some major cleanup. I had to protect my eyes while
fixing the compiler warning.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
