After hammering on the box a bit again, I'm in a situation where I get
lots of

[302399.701307] hip04-ether e28b0000.ethernet eth0: rx drop
and I really am getting a lot of drops - I can't even ping the machine
anymore.
However, as it is there's a good chance the machine is simply
unreachable because it's busy writing to the UART, and even if not all
useful messages indicating anything have scrolled out. I really don't
think you should emit any message over and over again to the user. Once
or twice is enough.
Please make sure to rate limit it.
