Thanks very much for your testing and detailed problem report. This
problem actually isn't in e1000. Can you try the attached patch,
please? I thought I'd seen this patch before, but it doesn't seem to
be in -mm yet.


Make assign_irq_vector() non-__init always (it's called from
io_apic_set_pci_routing(), which is used in the pci_enable_device()
path).
