It'd  be easier if you gave a few more details.  Where exactly did you
remove the Bus Master enable?  The PCI core should not enable Bus
Master for an endpoint at all unless the driver requests it, and based
on the dmesg fragment you posted, I don't think the driver is involved
yet.

Bus mastering affects transactions originated by the device, of
course.  So if the hang only happens if Bus Master is enabled, it
sounds like the hang happens when the device performs a DMA or other
transaction.  But if the driver hasn't claimed the device yet, the
device shouldn't be doing anything at all, even if Bus Master is
enabled.

There might be more clues if you would post the *entire* dmesg log
instead of just a fragment.
