Subject: Re: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v2] e1000e: move force SMBUS near the
end of enable_ulp function
Dear Hui,
Thank you for your patch.

1. s/Link/link/
2. “couldn’t work” means the reduced bandwidth?
3. Please add a blank line and maybe indent the past with four spaces.

Re-ordering code to achieve some waiting time sounds like, it’s not 100
% sure, that the problem won’t occur again?
Could you please document your test system?
Just a side note: Booting Linux 6.9-rc5+ *with kexec* on Supermicro
Super Server/X13SAE, BIOS 2.0 10/17/2022 with the network device below,
it also came up only with 10 Mbps and Ethernet did not work, for example
`ping`. I conjectured though, that the non-working part was due to the
switch configuration not allowing 10 Mbps.

Connection (17) I219-LM [8086:1a1c] (rev 11)
I didn’t find the time to further analyze and report the issue.
Also could this also be related to the regression reported by the kernel
test robot [1]?
