Thanks for confirming it works, because I was working without any access to hardware.

[...] I understand network performance on all RPi models is poor due to lack of a built-in Ethernet MAC and the poor design of the USB interface. Also that message is a generic error message from the usbnet core and is not specific to the smsc95xx driver. Were you using the network heavily, or do these messages appear regardless of the level of network traffic? I checked the latest Raspbian kernel I could find (,3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u4+rpi1) and they don't have any patches to that driver (other than adding a module parameter for no good reason).
