EEE is disabled. It's not an ASPM or EEE issue.

NVM 2.32 fixes a lane swapping issue, which can present issues like link working ok now and then fails later.

NVM 2.32 - Fixes an issue in MDI lane swap handling that caused the P (positive) and N (negative) signal polarities to be swapped incorrectly.

The buggy lane swapping can occur for numerous reasons.

Hard to follow which user has what NVM, but the base config needs to be i226 with latest NVM.
