[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH 1/3] Revert "e1000e: Additional PHY power saving in S0ix"

Hello Kai,


We believe that simply reverting these patches is not a good idea. It 
will cause the driver to behave on a corporate system as if the CSME 
firmwareis not there. This can lead to an unpredictable behavior in the 
long run.


The issue exposed by these patches is currently under active debug. We 
would like to find the root cause and fix it in a way that will still 
enable S0ix power savings on both corporate and consumer systems.
