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.
