Subject: [PATCH 3/4] e1000e: fix drv load issues

From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@...el.com>

a few people seem to have problems maintaining gigabit link
and it was root caused to an interaction between the managability
firmware on the host and the driver, not communicating.

The form of communication they use is the drv_load bit.
