r8169: deprecate support for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_27
RTL8168dp is ancient anyway, and I haven't seen any trace of its early version 27 yet. This chip versions needs quite some special handling, therefore it would facilitate driver maintenance if support for it could be dropped. For now just disable detection of this chip version. If nobody complains we can remove support for it in the near future. v2: - extend unknown chip version error message Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/ca98f018-a0e1-8762-e95c-f0ad773a0271@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
