Frequent PCIe bus error on device 8086:a292

[Dan Kegel]

This is on a fresh Dell 8930 with an i7-8700 (and a gtx1050) running ubuntu 18.04.
Linux rbb-ubu1804-1 4.15.0-32-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 10 17:58:07 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Oddly this only happens on one of the two such boxes I have.

Here's the main warning I'm seeing:

Aug 15 00:08:18 rbb-ubu1804-1 kernel: [24014.113915] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: AER: Corrected error received: id=00e2

Aug 15 00:08:18 rbb-ubu1804-1 kernel: [24014.113950] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: [12] Replay Timer Timeout

Happens kind of randomly; dmesg shows it happened 13 times in first 9 minutes;
syslog shows it happened 841 times in about 12 hours.

Also see a bit of this:
