Re: [PATCH-RFC] drivers: net: ethernet: intel: e1000e: fix ethtool autoneg off for fiber

[Daniel Walker <danielwa@cisco.com>]

So Intel maintainers (Jeff, Jesse, Shannon, Carolyn, Don, Bruce, and John)

I'm assuming no comments means this patch is acceptable , and I will 
resubmit it without the RFC. Is that acceptable ?
