The aarch64 system has a quirk that at the moment limits it to the
slower full-speed mode, which also exacerbates the issue (basically
taking a fairly slow 1.1.Mb/s network connection without your patch,
to an almost unusable 30Kb/s with it).

But that isn't the case on the x86_64 system, which is seeing a very
similar problem (though the performance effect isn't nearly as bad, as
the error rate in time seems relatively similar on both, and I think
my scp transmissions are cpu bound on this atom board :).
