Ok, I added this code, and can still reproduce the code.

Firmware is crashing multiple times a minute in this machine in it's
current configuration.  Right before it hung, firmware crashed and
was restarted, and then I get the hang notification.

I don't see any obvious bail-out in the tx_push_pending logic
if the firmware crashes?

Thanks,
Ben
