+	  Configure the Realtek RTL8211E found on some Pine64+ models differently to
+	  fix throughput on Gigabit links, turning off all internal delays in the
+	  process. The settings that this touches are not documented in the CONFREG
+	  section of the RTL8211E datasheet, but come from Realtek by way of the
