Subject: [PATCH net] r8169: re-establish support for RTL8401 chip version

r8169 never had native support for the RTL8401, however it reportedly
worked with the fallback to RTL8101e [0]. Therefore let's add this
as an explicit assignment.

This fix doesn't apply cleanly on 4.19, let me know whether you can
adjust it, or whether I should send a separate patch.
