I migrated to a Intel Sandy Bridge based system to test. Definitely something going on with the AMD based system, could be power supply/motherboard bios related. On the Intel system the ax88179 still locked up one time. I rebuilt with for- usb-linus tree merged and I reverted: 2a100047481a5c7430c72883b586eb6f2df34812 xhci: remove conversion from generic to pci device in xhci_mem.c https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2a100047481a5c7430c72883b586eb6f2df34812 I can't say for sure if this commit is a problem but this kernel build has been up now for several hours without an issue and i've put it through paces that usually lock up the nic.
