There is some throttling code, but it applies only to bulk transfers.  
Probably because the bandwidth limits for other types are slightly 
different.  However, I don't think we need to worry about this level of 
detail, since the driver makes a number of other approximations anyway.

Try the patch below; it should fix the problem.
