No reason at all. Thanks for pointing that out. It didn't occur to me to do that. I was marking only patch authors in cover letters so far.

Just a short heads-up and final result for this thread... The issue is fixed with Benjamin's patch: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10104349/ -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Best regards my address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* Chris cc -ox -xc - && ./x */b/42*2-3)*42);}

Apparently the intel maintainer was unavailable recently: https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg206192.html The patch is now in there: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue.git/log/?h=dev-queue but that only makes it slated for 4.16 AFAIK. Jeff, given that this issue breaks networking for many people, wouldn't it be more appropriate to submit the patch for 4.15?

Jeff, I see that the patch is still in your "next-queue". Meanwhile another 4.15 rc has been released and I've gotten more user reports that e1000e is broken.
