Subject: RE: [Intel-wired-lan] [BUG] 4.11.0-rc1 panic on shutdown X61s

Tested this on a Thinkpad T420i, after verifying it also has an e1000e NIC, unable to  reproduce. Might be limited to that particular model/firmware version you're using, which I was not able to track down here although there is another person I could ask, might be able to come up with one yet.
