Try to turn this adaptive algorithm off:

When you run off "adaptive-rx" you will get 31250 interrupts/sec
(calc 1/(32/10^6) = 31250).

I have now updated the settings to:

ethtool -c eth4
Coalesce parameters for eth4:
Adaptive RX: off  TX: off
stats-block-usecs: 0
sample-interval: 0
pkt-rate-low: 0
pkt-rate-high: 0

rx-usecs: 0

Please put a value in rx-usecs, like 20 or 10.
The value 0 is often used to signal driver to do adaptive.

Ok, put it now to 10.

Goes a bit quicker (transfer up to 26 MB/s), but discards and pci stalls are still there.
