I tried a bisection around the drivers/net/ethernet/realtek directory. =
I am confident about the bad selections, but not so much about the good=
 selections, even though I waited a full day with the bittorrent client=
 on the background before marking a commit=20
as good.

According to my bisection, the first bad commit is 036dafa28da1e2565a85=
29de2ae663c37b7a0060 . Here is my bisection log:
