I regret that I have not been able to get this through the compiler.
When I clone the linux-next repo and try to build with deb-pkg, some
process chokes on the weird version number of the linux-next kernel, and
transplanting the r8169.c from linux-next on to 4.20.6, compile aborts:

Will it help if I transplant more files from linux-next to 4.20.6?
