[Impact]
e1000e devices stop working after s2idle resume.

[Fix]
Revert the offending patch series, which is to bring some minor power
saving.

[Test]
Vendor did extensive tests and didn't find any regression, and the power
consumption remains the same.

[Where problems could occur]
Maybe on some system the series can save some energy, so reverting will
cause some power consumption increase.

Kai-Heng Feng (3):
  Revert "e1000e: Additional PHY power saving in S0ix"
  Revert "e1000e: Add polling mechanism to indicate CSME DPG exit"
  Revert "e1000e: Add handshake with the CSME to support S0ix"
