The severe regression in alx ethernet driver is still present in the
latest released kernel. Patches have been posted in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70761 There are reports
that these patches have resolved the problem. Could you please review
these patches and see if they can be included upstream? I have not
been able to update my kernel in almost six months. Many other users
are suffering from this same problem.
