because i have e1000 built-in and dont load the e1000e module at all.
That worked before and doesnt work now.
the solution is rather straightforward: if E1000 is built-in then E1000E
should be built-in as well or disabled (i.e. it should not be possible
to build it as a module in that case) - because the PCI ID stealing
trick now connects the two drivers unconditionally. [ If e1000 is a
module then e1000e can be a module (or disabled) - this would be the
most common configuration. ]
