CM4 after reboot NIC (eth0) disappears / no ethernet connection

Describe the bug

Hi,

I have a CM4 with EMMC and without wireless with official CM4 board and sometimes after reboot the NIC connection disappears. To get it work again either re-plug the power or doing sudo reboot.

Also I am noticing that before starting this problem when I reboot the ethernet connection leds does not power off and then power on. The same does the power led. It feels like completely ignore the the network drivers.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Just reboot some times.
