Dear e1000 driver maintainer,
I am using e1000e driver for VMWare workstation virtual machine. It's
VMware Workstation 11.1.0 for Linux with MS Windows 8.1 client,
therefore the chipset for ethernet is "e1000e" shown in the *.vmx file:
ethernet1.virtualDev = "e1000e"
I installed Ubuntu 15.04 development version on this machine, and the
Linux kernels I have tested are 3.19.0-12.12-generic and
4.0.0-040000rc7-generic. For both of them I got kernel oops:
