I'm new here, please correct me if I am doing things in the wrong way.


Yes this commit was committed to mainline about one year ago. But this commit has not been included into kernel 5.4 yet, and I encountered the probe failure when using alderlake-s with Ethernet adapter i225-LM. Since I could not directly apply the patch 7c496de538ee to kernel 5.4, so I generated this patch for kernel 5.4 usage.


Looks like sending a duplicated patch is not expected. Would you please advise what is the proper action when encountering such case? I would like this fix to be implemented into LTS kernel 5.4, I also wrote a ticket on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216261, but no response.


Regards

Joseph
