Just for curiosity sake, what if you re-write the secondary and
subordinate bus registers here:

# setpci -s 0002:00:00.0 0x19.b=0x01
# setpci -s 0002:00:00.0 0x1a.b=0xff

IIRC the users that debugged the AMD bus reset issue re-wrote the
entire 64 bytes of the bridge config header and then further narrowed
the issue down to the two registers above.  If one bridge
implementation can have such an issue, maybe others do too.  Perhaps
there's common IP in use.  Are you able to test other endpoints besides
this e1000e device with this setpci technique?  Thanks,

Alex
