[ 5417.275474] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1 (bnx2): transmit queue 2 timed out
The dump shows an internal IRQ pending on MSIX vector 2 which matches
the the queue number that is timing out.  I don't know what happened to
the MSIX and why the driver is not seeing it.  Do you see an IRQ error
message from the kernel a few seconds before the tx timeout message?
I haven't seen any IRQ related error message. Note, this is on Xen
4.3.1. Now I have new results with a reworked version of the patch,
unfortunately it still has this issue. Here is a bnx2 dump, lspci
output and some Xen debug output (MSI and interrupt bindings, I have
more if needed).
You need debug-keys 'Q' as well to map between the PCI devices and Xen IRQs

I could have it after reboot:

So the relevant MSI informations:
