Sorry for the delay. It was a busy week.

Can you give the hack below a try ?

David, could you send me the r8169 XID line from a kernel running on
the hardware for which I sent you a similar patch back in 2013/04 ?
You appeared to own a 8168f and it could be a RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_36.

Thanks.

Hayes, see http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=137794473416308&w=1 for
history. It could be eb2dc35d99028b698cdedba4f5522bc43e576bd2
("r8169: RxConfig hack for the 8168evl.") return, with a revenge.
