The problem is that the RFO "Receive buffer overflow" is happening. So, data is lost, but my patch should make it recover more quickly.
I think the real problem might be elsewhere in the kernel. Something holding onto the CPU for too long, so that the CPU does not have time to process the received data in time. My guess is some function call to the graphics card is taking too long to return.
