Yes, they have. You just didn't like the answers you received.

In particular, the Kconfig default for built-in tg3 firmware should
result in the current behavior, without the user having to take extra steps.

Because of your stubborn refusal on this Kconfig defaults issue, WE
ALREADY HAVE DRIVER-DOES-NOT-WORK BREAKAGE, JUST AS PREDICTED.

Wake up and smell reality. Please.
