1. Reverted to r8169.c?id=eb78139
   - the noise is still present
2. Patches applied - Francois Romieu (3):
   r8169: decouple the counters data and the device private area.
   r8169: move rtl_reset_counters_cond before the hardware counters helpers.
   r8169: increase the lifespan of the hardware counters dump area.
   - the noise is still present

$ modinfo -n r8169 
/lib/modules/4.3.0-0.rc0.git7.1.fc24.x86_64/updates/r8169.ko

This noise is induced via userspace, xfce4-netload-plugin,
