Hey all,

So it appears as though there's something pretty broken about the Intel AC 
9560 NIC that is largely included in modern-day laptops. Although this 
could only be an issue with the Intel 10th Gen CPUs. It also appears as 
though a kernel change has largely affected many Linux distributions as 
recently as December 2019.

I've tried every imaginable remediation in an attempt to resolve this issue.
To save time, I'll list the attempted fixes.


*ISSUE*
Network Manager in the sys-net VM will refuse to show the NIC as 
functioning, only allowing a hard-wired connection. Relating specifically 
to Intel AC 9560 & 10th Gen Intel CPUs.


*DEVICE*
System76 Darter Pro (darp6) w/ coreboot [Intel AC 9560+Intel 4.9 GHz 
i7-10510U]


*ATTEMPTED*
1. domU Fedora & Debian kernel
  a. latest
  b. unstable
  c. testing
2. Kernel Opts
  a. iommu=soft
  b. swiotlb=8192
3. Module blacklisting
4. All drivers
5. Backporting
6. Many, many more that aren't immediately coming to mind

with my affected device, so this is all I have.
