What about use modprobe pciehp pciehp_poll_mode=1?
If just cannot receive the interrupt, maybe this module parameter will fix it.

In fact, pcie native hotplug may not be implemented perfectly,
for example, I found some x86 machines pcie native hotplug slots that have problems
with latch register. After inserted a pci card, the latch still report latch open state.
So we cannot use pciehp to hotplug, But this problem cannot detect while system bootup or
load pciehp module. And now kernel force to use pciehp if pci slotcap has hotplug capable.
So I agree as Yinghai said users should have choice to choose hotplug module to use.
