I applied your changes are suggested above. It appears that the patch
successfully resolves the race condition it addressed. I managed to
push the system to 1.9 gbps, previously I could not push it beyond 1.6
gbps. Unfortunately, there appear to be more race conditions, as the
fault happened again when I attempted to push it to 2.3 gbps. This
time I did not get any error message in /var/log/messages, although
they appear on the console the same way as before.
