@robert

No problem. At the moment i can't do any testing on the machine because it is 
in production now (running only with one active link, no bonding configured)

 I think these are likely related problems, which is getting close to
 what Garrett said. One of the things we should probably look at is
 updating the 5719/5720 to leverage the newer virtualization bits instead
 of the legacy format that we're using.
 
 Unfortunately we don't really have these handy, so we're not in a great
 position to develop against this right now. I'm not sure how
 straightforward a change that'd end up being.
 
 Killian, sorry I had kind of dropped the ball on this. There is probably
 a bit more debugging we can do on the driver here that'll require a bit
 of custom stuff to go better dig into. Unfortunately I can't really
 guarantee much of a prod-safe way on those next steps.
 
 Ian, Killian, are any of these in a place where we could maybe put
 together something which dumps some of the register space and you might
 be able to run it? I can try putting together a one off module / command
 or an updated platform / ioctl. Though again, testing this stuff is a
 bit hard for me to do given hw.
