ns2: Don't try to add packets to the backlog on real errors

When writing to the AF_PACKET socket, we have to distinguish the
pseudo-errors like -ENOBUFS (where we do want to add to the backlog)
from real errors like -ENETDOWN, -EMSGSIZE, ... where we don't want
to add the failed packet to the backlog.
