Right on time a suspend cycle later the problem turned up again.

Now from a failed resume.

I could not spot a difference.

From a failed resume it looks like the following.

        $ sudo mii-tool -v
        eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
          product info: vendor 00:07:32, model 17 rev 2
          basic mode:   autonegotiation enabled
          basic status: autonegotiation complete, link ok
          capabilities: 1000baseT-HD 1000baseT-FD 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD
          advertising:  100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD flow-control
          link partner: 1000baseT-HD 1000baseT-FD 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD flow-control

This seems to be identical too.

From a failed resume the output is like the following.

        $ more /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:02\:00.0/power/{control,runtime_enabled,runtime_status}
        ::::::::::::::
        /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/power/control
        ::::::::::::::
        on

        /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/power/runtime_status
        ::::::::::::::
        active

This also seems identical.

Unfortunately I was not able to change the control parameter and always
got »The argument is invalid.« as an response.

        # echo off > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/power/control
        bash: echo: Schreibfehler: Das Argument ist ungültig.
        # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/power/control
        bash: echo: Schreibfehler: Das Argument ist ungültig.
        # echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/power/control
        bash: echo: Schreibfehler: Das Argument ist ungültig.

Here are now some more values and outputs from a failed resume. Maybe
they are useful.
