Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86/intel/pmc: Remove GBE LTR ignore

Commit 804951203aa5 ("platform/x86:intel/pmc: Combine core_init() and
core_configure()") moved the GBE LTR ignore workaround from core.c to PCH
code and added it new for Cannon Lake PCH in cnp.c. This introduced a
network performance regression on a CNP PCH system [1] which has been
observed on other PCH architectures during testing. Remove the probe-time
GBE LTR ignore for all platforms. While this will prevent performance
degradation, it will also limit the deepest SoC Package C state that can be
entered at runtime while a LAN cable is attached.

Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218143 [1]
