[PATCH 4/8] e1000: FIX: disable LPE for IPV6, only enable for jumbo frames

["Kok, Auke" <auke-jan.h.kok@intel.com>]

Allocations using alloc_page are taking too long for normal MTU, so
use LPE only for jumbo frames. Disable packet split for IPV6 extension
headers since malformed headers can hang the RX.
