> did this problem not occur in an earlier kernel or release of Ubuntu?

I don't know. I just got this T520 and put 14.04.03 on it. Swapped the
SSD with a harddisk containing 16.04 for testing. So I've seen this bug
with these kernel versions only:

- 3.13.0-86-generic x86_64 (Ubuntu 14.04.03)
- 4.4.0-21-generic x86_64 (Ubuntu 16.04)
- 4.6.0 (vanilla)

Title:
  8086:1502 e1000e driver failed with error -3

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I switch on my laptop, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS amd64, it will
  boot and load e1000e, but no eth* interface is present. Even repeated
  rmmod and modprobe don't bring up the interface. After a restart (i.e.
  no fresh power-up) it works just fine. After the next power-cycle the
  problem is there again. Laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T520 (Optimus
  graphics).

  joerg@x61:~$ sudo dmesg | grep e1000e
  [    1.622695] e1000e: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 2.3.2-k

  [    2.673058] e1000e: probe of 0000:00:19.0 failed with error -3

  Same error happens with a vanilla kernel 4.6.0:

  cat /proc/version

  Afterwards I've added some error output and changed some debugs into
  error prints in the e1000e:
