A few drivers do the full transmit operation asynchronously, which means
that a bus error that happens when forwarding the packet to the
transmitter will not be reported immediately. The solution in this case
is to call this new helper to free the necessary resources, restart the
the queue and return a generic TRAC error code: IEEE802154_SYSTEM_ERROR.
