From: Francois Romieu <romieu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3ced8c955e74d319f3e3997f7169c79d524dfd06 ] Same narrative as eb2dc35d99028b698cdedba4f5522bc43e576bd2 ("r8169: RxConfig hack for the 8168evl.") regarding AMD IOMMU errors. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_36 - 8168f as well - has not been reported to behave the same.
