USB3 is standard (XHCI) so a single USB3 driver will work with all adapters,
sounds more like an issue with the "express card" port or device... what
type of express card port is on the PC and what is that connected to?

I ran the tests and there is not even a mention of "xhci" anywhere in the
output of dmesg. I believe it does not correctly recognize the USB3 device.
In the dmesg output I did see references to "ehci-pci", like this:
"new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci"
I am not sure whether that is supposed to be the USB3 device or something
else.
I should mention that this device is a new USB3 HD enclosure, in which I
have put an SSD hard disk. The device came with a USB3 Y-cable, both ends of
which I had plugged into different USB ports. This enclosure's cable is
plugged into a USB3 port on a USB3 dual port express card, which in turn is
plugged into the express card port of the PC. When the machine is booted
into Windows, the USB3 device is recognized and appears to realize USB3
speeds based on the test I ran on it. I can see the device in Windows Device
Manager, etc.
I also tried another attempt at using it in IFL by plugging in a different
USB3 HD device into the adapter, but once again the second hard disk was not
even recognized. So, it would appear that this adapter is not playing nicely
with Linux. I will need to solve that general problem with Linux
compatibility before being able to use it in IFL environment.
