Hi Francois:

Thanks for answering.

the device then rescan the PCI bus through sysfs.

dmesg says "eth0: RTL8110s at 0xffffc2000067ec00, 00:4f:4a:10:1e:cf, XID
04000000 IRQ 16".

Is there any particular patch I could apply and just recompile the driver?
My hope was to first receive feedback and identify some probably related
known bug, in order to avoid searching for a solution by trial and error or
by updating the whole environment.
