Justification: fails to build from source
Hi,
I tried to build r8168-dkms with the latest kernel image, and I get the
following errors:
/var/lib/dkms/r8168/8.042.00/build/r8168_n.c: In function
‘rtl8168_init_one’:
/var/lib/dkms/r8168/8.042.00/build/r8168_n.c:22799:28: error: ‘struct
net_device’ has no member named ‘gso_min_segs’
dev->gso_min_segs = NIC_MIN_PHYS_BUF_COUNT;

It looks like Arch Linux already has a patch for this:

Thank-you for your work, Cheers,
PS: I'm running kernel 4.6.0-1 to report the bug, but it happens with
linux-image-4.7.0-1-amd64, 4.6 is fine.
