rmaarsen: Thanks, it looks like this is the cause.
For stability reasons I hope this patch will be included or backported
into Ubuntu 2.6.22 kernel. I found that this problem has been fixed in
2.6.23 according to this in the release note:

atl1: disable broken 64-bit DMA
64-bit DMA causes data corruption with atl1. We don't know why, and Atheros
is working on it. For now, just use 32-bit DMA. This is a big hack that is
probably wrong, but it stops the bleeding.
