"grant" is PCI_COMMAND?

If so, I think you have all of them.
You may want to leave BUS_MASTER disabled until you think
the driver is in a state where it needs to do DMA again.
E.g. before kicking off the scripts engine.

They can if the NIC driver doesn't deal with programming the phy
properly. We had a problem with tg3 because of that in the past.
The phy doesn't get reset as part of the PCI Bus RESET.
