Thanks for the offer. I already have two variants of AX88178 based
controller and both work fine without problems. I vaguely guess
it could be related with ehci(4) as I don't see offending code in
axe(4). Of course, this does not necessary mean axe(4) is bug free
but I couldn't find clue yet.
Hans, can you see other possible cause of the issue?
