e1000e: disable far-end loopback mode on ESB2
The ESB2 LAN includes a debug feature that enables far-end loopback (FELB)
of the SerDes/Kumeran interface. This feature is activated when receiving
a sequence of symbols that includes a reserved codeword. On a perfect
link, FELB would never be activated. In the presence of bit errors, there
is a very small, but non-zero, probability of FELB being activated.
If the FELB is activated, the SerDes link becomes non-functional and must
be reset. It could also corrupt the switching tables in the switch since
the ESB2 is transmitting packets with a different source MAC address.
This patch disables the FELB feature.
