ethernet/atheros/alx: add Killer E2400 device ID
This patch adds the PCI device ID (0xe0a1) and alx_pci_tbl entry for the Killer E2400 Ethernet controller, modeled after the Killer E2200 controller support (0xe091) already present in the alx driver. This patch was originally authored by Ben Pope, but it got held up by issues in the commit message, so I'm resubmitting it on his behalf. I've extensively used a kernel with this patch on a System76 serw9 laptop and am quite confident it works well (at least on the hardware I have available for testing). Note that as a favor to System76, Ubuntu has been carrying this as a sauce patch in their 4.2 based Wily kernel, which presumably has given it real-world testing on other E2400 equipped hardware (I don't know of any Ubuntu kernel bugs filed about it): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1498633Signed-off-by: Jason Gerard DeRose <jason@system76.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Pope <benpope81@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
