I'm not sure what the datasheet says, but yes there is a hardware issue
on some of the 10G adapters if using header split. I have left the code in
in a disabled state for a long time, thinking it would be there as example
code, but I think it best to remove it and simplify the code at this point.
Oh, and yes, results have always been mixed with the feature in my
experience anyway.
