Subject: [PATCH 2/4] e1000e: perform basic 82573 EEPROM checks for known issues

From: Auke Kok <auke-jan.h.kok@...el.com>

82573 EEPROMs have been shipped out with known issues. While most
people will never see the issues some people do and we know
how to address them. Warn the user if we find one of these
EEPROM issues.
