Looking at the dmesg there is hotplug enabled for the PCIe root port:

Mar 26 09:44:00 fedora kernel: pcieport 0000:80:1b.4: pciehp: Slot #25 AttnBtn- PwrCtrl- MRL- AttnInd- PwrInd- HotPlug+ Surprise+ Interlock- NoCompl+ IbPresDis- LLActRep+

For Barlow Ridge it should be disabled. Lenovo may already have a BIOS fix
please check. They have done that for other models too.
