pfifo_fast_enqueue has this check:
        if (skb_queue_len(list) < qdisc_dev(qdisc)->tx_queue_len) {

which allows each band to enqueue upto tx_queue_len skbs for a
total of 3*tx_queue_len skbs. I am not sure if this was the
intention of limiting in qdisc.
Yes I noticed that and said to myself :
This was to let high priority packets have their own limit,
independent on fact that low priority packets filled their queue.

Patch compiled and 32 simultaneous netperf testing ran fine. Also:
# tc -s qdisc show dev eth2
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: root bands 3 priomap  1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
 Sent 16835026752 bytes 373116 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 25) 
 rate 0bit 0pps backlog 0b 0p requeues 25 

(I am taking next week off, so sorry for any delay in responding)
