Running the equivalent of the above command on my system does not result in a
DMA error for my 14e4:4315 device. It runs for almost 22 minutes and then loses
the connection with the following logged:

So far, I have done 2 runs with the failure at 22 minutes in both cases. When
this situation occurs, I can do an unload/reload sequence and it will run for
another 22 minutes.
