I've certainly been using it ... there's a Linux driver for it,
part of a "USB Gadget" framework that could support other such
"target mode" hardware, at http://kernel.bkbits.net/~david-b
for general use. (Download from BK, the 2.5.64 patch doesn't
include the net2280 driver and there's no 2.4 patch yet. I'll
send out an announcement soon, when I update the patches.)
I haven't run into that particular problem, but it sounds
like it might be a known erratum ... have you asked NetChip, or
checked the 14-March errata at their website? They've been
pretty responsive to my questions.

The net2280 is the only such chip I know of that talks PCI
directly. So it's particularly Linux-friendly: it doesn't
need special bus adapter hardware.
