Great!
This patch is mostly to give us time to investigate, this seems to be an
issue related to that specific i225 model. I have to track one down and
perhaps talk to the hardware folks and see what I am doing wrong.

I wasn't expecting any changes in performance, I was more asking if you
had some use case for PCIe PTM, and something stopped working. It seems
that the answer is no. That's good.

I will write a useful commit message, take another closer look to see if
I am still missing something and propose the patch upstream. From there
until it's accepted in a stable tree, I guess it could take a few days,
a week, perhaps.
