Could it be that these changes, especially the ones from

net: sched: fix stats accounting for child NOLOCK qdiscs

are fixing the long-standing issue of random ethernet card adapter 
resets that were introduces somewhere between 4.14.xx and 4.19.xx?

There are numerous reports of different nics failing (mine is a igb), 
with no real solution found yet.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199783

has a few examples.

I'm certainly no expert, but my kernel trace seems to point to that area:
