Here's the initialization sequence of these devices:

Jul 13 12:19:27 tyrex kernel: pci 0000:40:03.1: [1022:1453] type 01 class 0x060400
Jul 13 12:19:27 tyrex kernel: pci 0000:40:03.1: PME# supported from D0 D3hot D3cold

The last line is somewhat suspicious, but hard to decipher:

DPC: error containment capabilities: Int Msg #0, RPExt+ PoisonedTLP+ SwTrigger+ RP PIO Log 6, DL_ActiveErr+

I'm pretty sure, this is related, but the deeper meaning is denied me.

Would be nice, if some enlightened person could shed some light
into this abyss.
