Subject: e1000e: Set InterruptThrottleRate to default when invalid value used
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2d06cad1a5ceb3b04dc9547e261ad4fcebf7433d;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

e1000e: Set InterruptThrottleRate to default when invalid value used

During module load, seting the InterruptThrottleRate parameter to an
invalid value would result in the itr/itr_setting pair being set to
unexpected values which would result in poor performance.
