I think you're right.  I propose the following patch on top of your
original one:

commit 300ef7967e87467656b0fe24270edba66bce45e4

    r8169: Preserve other Device Control bits when setting NOSNOOP_EN

    Previously, when we turned on the "Enable No Snoop Bit," we cleared all
    the other Device Control bits, including error reporting enables,
    Max_Payload_Size, Max_Read_Request_Size, etc.  This patch preserves
    all the other bits.
