[PATCH] ethernet/atheros/alx: add Killer E2400 device ID

[Jason Gerard DeRose]

From: Ben Pope <benpope81@gmail.com>

This patch adds the PCI device ID (0xe0a1) and alx_pci_tbl entry for the
Killer E2400 Ethernet controller, modeled after the Killer E2200
controller support (0xe091) already present in the alx driver.

This patch was originally authored by Ben Pope, but it got held up by
issues in the commit message, so I'm resubmitting it on his behalf.

I've extensively used a kernel with this patch on a System76 serw9
laptop and am quite confident it works well (at least on the hardware I
have available for testing).

Note that as a favor to System76, Ubuntu has been carrying this as a
sauce patch in their 4.2 based Wily kernel, which presumably has given
it real-world testing on other E2400 equipped hardware (I don't know of
any Ubuntu kernel bugs filed about it):

Apologies, this is my first time submitting a kernel patch :)

Should I use git send-email to send this again, this time with the 
sign-off from Ben? And if so, should I do so as a reply to this thread?

Thanks for you time!

    I didn't notice if your mailer corrupted the patch but if it did 'git 
send-email' should be used indeed.

    No need to resend if it wasn't corrupted. Just replying to this patch with 
his sign-off should be enough -- patchwork should collect the tags from the 
follow-ups.

> And if so, should I do so as a reply to this thread?

    No, not on this list. DaveM prefers the patch reposts to be done as the 
fresh new postings.

> Thanks for you time!

    Your, I guess? Not at all. :-)

I originally used `git send-email`, so the patch should not have been 
corrupted.

Okay, thanks for the clarification!
