I'll defer to Rafael here; he's been working the most in this area.
The changelog wasn't very complete for the original patch, but it
sounds like in the kexec case the newly booted kernel will get an igb
device in D3 which it can't handle? That really does sound like a
driver bug, not something we should mess with in the core.
