I wonder about a few things.

1. What are the exact symptoms, besides Ethernet driver errors?
Any errors from xhci_hcd? What if dynamic debug is enabled?

2. How did you determine that this is the exact cause?

3. Does it happen every time when a Link follows Setup, or only
randomly and it takes lots of control transfers to trigger it?

4. How is it even possible? As far as I see, Linux simply queues
three TRBs for a control URB. There are 255 slots in a segemnt,
so exactly 85 URBs should fit, and then back to the first slot.

Michal
