Public bug reported:

I am using a Thunderbolt 3 Pro Dock with a built in Aquantia 10 GBase-T
NIC (atlantic).

The issue is that during boot it only detects the interface as 5 GBe, as seen 
in dmesg:
enp11s0: atlantic: link change old 0 new 5000

This prevents the interface from establishing a connection. With Ubuntu
21.04 and previous versions this issue didn't exist.

I found a couple workarounds for this problem:
1. Enable Thunderbolt Security (User Authorization or Secure Connect) in the 
BIOS. This prevents the computer from suspending however, so this workaround 
isn't feasible.
2. Run sudo rmmod atlantic && modprobe atlantic and the NIC will connect at 10 
GBe without issues as seen below:
atlantic 0000:0b:00.0 enp11s0: atlantic: link change old 0 new 10000

From the obervations above, I draw the conclusion that the module gets
loaded too early with Thunderbolt Security disabled and should happen at
a later point in time.
