[ Upstream commit271225fd57] Commita296d665ea("ixgbe: Add ethtool support to enable 2.5 and 5.0 Gbps support") introduced suppression of the advertisement of NBASE-T speeds by default, according to Todd Fujinaka to accommodate customers with network switches which could not cope with advertised NBASE-T speeds, as posted in the E1000-devel mailing list: https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/mailman/message/37106269/ However, the suppression was not documented at all, nor was how to enable NBASE-T support. Properly document the NBASE-T suppression and how to enable NBASE-T support.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
