Definitely a bug. I've got the same lock-up a second time on a rc5.
It may be related to a patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=21e197f231...
Before that patch on this chip [10ec:8136] the r8169 driver crashed with a null pointer exception.
Strangely, on a .22 kernel came out (at that time always) the same lspci error:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev ff) (prog-if ff)
!!! Unknown header type 7f
... just my observations ;-)
