Don't you think it should be explained in a doc?
	doc/guides/nics/e1000em.rst
I'm especially confused by the need of changing an example for this PMD.
Does it mean the API behaviour must be changed?

Announcing a support in first patch and making it work later
is a strange logic to review.

You forgot to keep the Acked-by: Cunming Liang <cunming.liang at intel.com>

Applied in this order:
	e1000: restrict link interrupt setup scope
	e1000: separate link and Rx interrupt disabling
	e1000: support Rx interrupt setup
	e1000: add Rx interrupt handler
	l3fwd-power: disable Rx interrupt when waking up
Thanks
