The only thing I can see us doing here is revert. Three machine
pairs are affected, yet each exhibits the problem in different ways:
- elbling[01] see tg3 transmit timeouts
- merlot[01] see SERR NMIs
- godello[01] appear to suffer from silent reboots
Other than assuming that the NICs of these systems (all using the
tg3 driver) don't properly support what the standard mandates I
have no explanation so far. Maybe once I run the code on a few
more systems here I can find one also showing such bad behavior.
