Details

Summary

The m_collapse() failed when transmitting medium-sized packets when the
interface mtu was set to 9000, so revert back to the non-error-causing
m_defrag().

It's also possible there was no performance benefit to using m_collapse()
over m_defrag() there, but that would need to be investigated.

Test Plan

Test medium (960-1400 byte) message sizes with 9000 MTU.
