On my system, the problem indeed also happens without
suspending/resuming. Just moving the system out of the dock or
unplugging the network cable (while it was running on batteries at
least) is enough to trigger it. I think that the only condition in which
the network card works is after the system has booted while the network
cable was plugged in. All actions of unplugging or booting up with
disconnected network cable, seems to break the network card (ethtool
then reports no such device).

In the thread at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/9/212 I posted some logs
and information about how I reproduced the problem exactly. On my
system, when reconnecting the network cable, I even get a PME# disabled,
PME# enabled endless loop in ehci_hcd.

At least Linux 3.0 and 2.6.38 have the problematic behaviour, 2.6.32
works fine.
