Then runtime pm doesn't seem to be set to "auto". Else 10s after link loss
the chip runtime-suspends and is set to D3hot.

At least your Bugzilla report refers to VER_39. PCI device id 0x8136 is shared
by all fast ethernet chip versions.
Do you know other affected chip versions apart from VER_39 ?

In the Bugzilla report you also write the issue occurs with GBit-capable
link partners. This sounds more like an aneg problem.
The issue doesn't occur with fast ethernet link partners?

Your bug report also includes a patch that disables L1_1 only.
Not sure how this is related because the chip version we speak about
here doesn't support L1 sub-states.

So what you're saying is that mainline is fine and your problem is with
a downstream kernel with re-enabled ASPM? So there's nothing broken in
mainline? In mainline you have the option to re-enable ASPM states
individually via sysfs (link subdir at pci device).
