Public bug reported:

The following bug is reproducible with linux-image-3.13.0-53-generic,
but not with linux-image-3.13.0-52-generic.

When I unplug the Ethernet cable from my laptop, I get the following messages 
in /var/log/kern.log after a few seconds (~20s):
May 22 13:59:36 host kernel: [ 5498.465626] pciehp 0000:00:1c.5:pcie04: Card 
not present on Slot(5)

Then, when I re-plug the cable, eth0 does not appear in network manager; there 
is no message in kern.log.
eth0 does not appear in ifconfig -a

$ ifconfig -a

I tried to reinitialize networking with the following:
sudo modprobe -r atl1c
sudo modprobe atl1c

Still no eth0 and no message in kern.log

I tried
$ sudo ifup eth0
Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.

Same symptoms occur when I reboot my router, and its Ethernet interface
becomes temporarily unavailable.

Only way I found to restore eth0 was rebooting.
