Bug Description

e1000e: enable support for new device IDs
The device IDs 0x15a0 and 0x15a1 are new SKUs that contain the same MAC as
I217 and same PHY as I218.
The device IDs 0x15a2 and 0x15a3 are the same as existing I218 SKUs.

e1000e: fix I217/I218 PHY initialization flow
The initialization of the PHY on I217/I218, while similar to 82579, must
also check to see if the MAC and PHY are in the same mode (PCIe vs. SMBus)
otherwise the PHY will be inaccessible by the MAC.

you cause conflicts with existing installed kernel
