FYI this seems fixed since 2015-02-12 when I ran this fix:
sudo ethtool -K com gso off gro off tso off
Which I found at:
http://serverfault.com/questions/616485/e1000e-reset-adapter-unexpectedly-detected-hardware-unit-hang
Here's a log of how many times it happened each day, 0 times since the
fix on 2015-02-12, always at least once every day, so I think it's
conclusive.
