Heiner Kallweit beb401ec50 r8169: deprecate support for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_27
RTL8168dp is ancient anyway, and I haven't seen any trace of its early
version 27 yet. This chip versions needs quite some special handling,
therefore it would facilitate driver maintenance if support for it
could be dropped. For now just disable detection of this chip version.
If nobody complains we can remove support for it in the near future.

v2:
- extend unknown chip version error message

README

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.
