(regarding the r8169 changes) The module parameter is pointless: you previously said you tested the r8169 changes, there is a whole release cycle ahead and we already have enough kernels that can be choosen amongst if some specific feature turns unexpectedly wrong. This way you won't have to ponder if you should keep the original author's Signed-off-by in the r8169 driver or not. -- Ueimor
