I went for an easier way (couldn't figure printing macs fast enough :), I'm just printing out if there is a packet received in tg3_rx, and running tethereal meanwhile. After checking the output for several minutes I'm sure that every packet received by tg3_rx is accounted for in tethereal, which means the incoming bpdu's are eaten by the hardware...
