Okay - maybe the issue is more complex.  It appears that a reboot solved
the immediate problem.

My first impression was that you hadn't provided any evidence that the new kernel is the source of the problem.

The fact the problem cleared with rebooting suggests pretty strongly it's not.

If you can reproduce the problem, and it's not cleared by restarting sshd at the server end, I think you should explore how to run it under strace. Read the man page for information. You need to trace network activity, but not the traffic itself. For simplicity, I would use
   "-e trace=network"
