Using a (delayed) workqueue for ERR006358 is not correct - a work queue is a single-trigger device. Once the work queue has been scheduled, it can't be re-scheduled until it has been run. This can cause problems - with an appropriate packet timing, we can end up with packets queued, but not sent by the hardware, resulting in the transmit timeout firing. Re-implement this as per the workaround detailed in the ERR006358 documentation - if there are packets waiting to be sent when we service the transmit ring, and we see that the transmitter is not running, kick the transmitter to run the pending entries in the ring. Testing here with a 10Mbit half duplex link sees the resulting iperf TCP bandwidth increase from between 1 to 2Mbps to between 8 to 9Mbps.
