The workaround you provided was a success.
I was able to mount a USB 3.0 device and validated approximately 2x the data transmission speed.
So USB 3.0 is now working for me.
Thank you for your support as I had nearly accepted the fate of using USB 2.0 on this machine, and this is great.
I have no idea why: [GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="iommu=soft"] solves the problem- or what 'iommu=soft' represents either.
I would like to know more about it or find a more permanent solution.
