Severity: wishlist

The new Skylake CPUs will come with the new Sunpoint PCH that also
brings a new Intel i219 gigabit network chip.

The current e1000e driver lacks support for these new NICs.

Support for them was added in:
 commit 79849ebc0e06d775f53d160bb1a63b000fa0947b
 commit 9d17ce493a3ef1b140a4c831ba72fb435576c75a
 commit 1103a631a83408733849b47fa2170cda984df2a3
 commit 152c0a976c71386c67c89969acc427dc5cf802b8

Please consider backporting support for these devices to stable so that
they can be used out of the box when they become available.


Thanks,

Markus
