Hi,

Thank you for testing the patch.

Do you see any "Transfer error for slot..." error message?
What is the speed of your device? high speed?
I try to downgrade my ethernet adapter to high speed and do some tests,
no errors are reported in dmesg if dynamic debug is enabled.
I think it is a super speed issue, however, it doesn't happen on the high
speed device, I am not sure. So the patch will not check the speed of the
device.

OK, thanks.
