 Log Message:
 PR/5901: Felix A. Croes: PPP fast queue blocks traffic at normal priority.
 Applied fix, similar to the one suggested in the PR. We use a counter to
 limit the number of consecutive packets accepted from the fast queue. This
 number can be set via ioctl, but this has not been implemented. Since there
 are only 2 queues other proposed solutions such as ALTQ are overkill and
 they have not been implemented in the past 7 years. Now LCP echos can be
 used to detect that the line is up.
