We have had other recent reports of issues with this part that are due to
ASPM L1 being enabled.  Would you please try disabling L1 after the driver
is loaded as follows (assuming your adapter is still PCI bus/device/number
02:00.0 as indicated in the lspci output you provided earlier):
1) First check the hexadecimal value of the LnkCtl register -
# setpci -s 2:0.0 0xf0
2) Disable ASPM (both L0s and L1) by zeroing out bits 0 and 1 in the value
returned by the previous step.  For example, if it returned 42 (hex 42,
that is) -
# setpci -s 2:0.0 0xf0=0x40
3) Confirm ASPM is disabled by checking the output from lspci again.

Please let us know if this helps your situation, thanks.
Bruce.
