When ops->xmit() fails, drop the packet. Devices which support hardware
ack and retry (which include all devices currently supported by mainline),
will automatically retry sending the packet (in the hardware) up to 3
times, per the 802.15.4 spec.  There is no need, and it is incorrect to
try to do it in mac802154.
