This function is called each time the network stack wants to start the
transmitter. This occures whenever the network stack adds a packet
to a device's send queue and the IFF_OACTIVE
bit in the
device's if_flags
is not set.
For many devices this function need only set the IFF_OACTIVE
bit in the
if_flags
and send an event to the transmit task
indicating that a packet is in the driver transmit queue.
