Bisect would probably be the best option to find the culprit commit.
There are couple of commits done for pciehp so reverting them one by one
may help as well:

87d0f2a5536f PCI: pciehp: Prevent deadlock on disconnect
75fcc0ce72e5 PCI: pciehp: Do not disable interrupt twice on suspend
b94ec12dfaee PCI: pciehp: Refactor infinite loop in pcie_poll_cmd()
157c1062fcd8 PCI: pciehp: Avoid returning prematurely from sysfs requests
