I'm not convinced. Some other occurrences: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d17c7868b2f8e329dcee4ecd2f5d16cfc9b26ac8 https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200323191639.48826-1-aaron.ma@canonical.com/ Of course we need an ACK from Intel this one is also related to ME.
