e1000e: disable Early Receive DMA on ICH LOMs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Internal stress testing with jumbo frames shows the reliability of ICH9 and
ICH10D devices is improved in certain corner cases by disabling the Early
Receive feature. To reduce the performance impact caused by disabling this
feature, the packet buffer sizes and relevant flow control settings are
modified accordingly.
