Thing is that I have already talked to the relevant people internally.
The problem here is that the PCI bus is not doing its work anymore. This
can happen when one of the sides does a violation that the other side
isn't ready to cope with. The proper way to cope with this is to take
the machine and to plug it in a PCI analyzer. This is an equipment that
monitors all the PCI transactions on the bus. You are not the first to
complain, I have had a lot of complaints about this recently. Someone
even tried to bisect because he thought this was a regression. This
didn't bring any conclusion since the commit that served as the 'good'
baseline wasn't working anymore after he finished the bisection.
In short, unless you are ready to send the actual system that is giving
you trouble, there isn't much I can do.
You can try the step in

help recovering.
