A number of Gigabyte boards from ~2009 have broken BIOS support, resulting in the PHY
reporting an invalid PHY ID. Realtek / Gigabyte don't release errata information,
therefore there's not much that can be done. In bugzilla.kernel.org you can find
workarounds that helped for some users, else use the r8168 driver.
