Hello!

We use the the 82571EB (QUAD COPPER BP) with the e1000e driver.
We haven't experienced any problems yet.

The patch is trivial, just adding a new PCI ID...

Regards
 Sven Anders

NAK.  While this is indeed a trivial patch to enable a device that is not currently supported in e1000e, this device requires special handling to get the bypass functionality to work properly and as such this patch is insufficient.
