Hm, I can see a very similar message in 3.18.16, so it was not
the expected outcome.

After building the "official" r8168 from Realtek for 4.1.0-rc8,
the difference in lspci from the working 3.18.16 is nil, before
and after modprobe. (r8168 was build for 3.18.16, that's why.)

However, connman (similar to NetworkManager) still sees the network
connectivity as "down". I checked that the firmware files are there in
/lib/firmware/rtl_nic.

With r8168 (the "official" Realtek driver), the kernel message about
"link up" appears immediately and connman can configure the network.

I have tried the patch on 4.0.5, too, with the same result.

So, there may be another problem with the r8169 driver itself besides
this ACPI problem but no matter what I do, I can't seem to be able
to enable debugging messages for r8169.

So, for now I can use r8168 instead of r8169 with this patch.

Thanks,
Zoltán
