I ran into a em0 timeout on a box I just started testing. The patch
seems to fix the issue.
(before the patch)

The Intel board has the latest BIOS update as well, HTT disabled in
the BIOS. If helpful, I can hook this box up to the netperf cluster
which has remote power and serial console access (including to the BIOS)
