Public bug reported:
When I switch on my laptop, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS amd64, it will boot
and load e1000e, but no eth* interface is present. Even repeated rmmod
and modprobe don't bring up the interface. After a restart (i.e. no
fresh power-up) it works just fine. After the next power-cycle the
problem is there again. Laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T520 (Optimus
graphics).

Same error happens with a vanilla kernel 4.6.0:

Afterwards I've added some error output and changed some debugs into
error prints in the e1000e:
