Unsurprisingly, introducing this handler also "fixes" the issue in my
setup.

FWIW, during my investigation with the Thumb2 issue, I was looking at
the abort handler and its history a bit more closely too. I was about to
suggest readding this handler too, you just beat me by some hours :-)

The current 4.9 downstream BSP still has the old fault handler, and
hence this issue does not happen in the downstream BSP.

Agreed, it should be alongside the "external abort on non-linefetch"
handler.

I actually encountered another issue when I had a Intel e1000e running
yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't able to reproduce the issue, so maybe
it was just a fluke. It probably would be solved by the additional
"imprecise external abort" too:
