[c-nsp] Simultaneous drops - 2 upstream providers

You don't give too much information here, so its hard to speculate.

My guess as to the first thing to check would be out of buffer drops on the
37x, but like I said above, it's only really a wild guess, since you don't
specify port layout or link speeds. You can verify by looking at the ASIC
stats, as the interface stats can be unreliable for that type of drop.
