The patch titled e1000e: fix drv load issues has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was e1000e-fix-drv-load-issues.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: e1000e: fix drv load issues From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@xxxxxxxxx> A few people seem to have problems maintaining gigabit link and it was root caused to an interaction between the managability firmware on the host and the driver, not communicating. The form of communication they use is the drv_load bit.
