This change is now in Linus's 4.4rc4 tree:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=0208e951d55c435137543e12d7ee795c3784713a

Which means it will make it into Xenial, and could be cherry picked into
the Xenial 4.3 branch in the mean time.

Title:
  drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx: please add device ID for Killer
  E2400

Status in System76:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Wily:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This small patch is needed to enable the Killer E2400 Ethernet
  controller.

  This patch was originally authored by Ben Pope and has been submitted
  to netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/376851

  However, that patch is currently held up by formatting issues in the
  commit message, hasn't yet been merged into the netdev branch
  upstream.

  As we have an upcoming product that uses the E2400, it would hugely
  help System76 if Ubuntu could carry this as a "sauce" patch till it is
  merged upstream.

  In particular, it would help System76 if this patch could be included
  in time to be on the final Ubuntu 15.10/Wily ISO, otherwise our
  customer restore procedure will require WiFi, wont be able to utilize
  Ethernet.

  Note I've extensively tested this patch with an E2400 Ethernet
  controller and it seems 100% solid.

  Thanks!
