r8169: remove PCI DAC support

hkallweit · davem330 · commit 10b63e854314 · 2019-01-22T14:52:47.000-08:00
The old non-PCIe chip versions support PCI DAC, however this feature
seems to be fragile, see comment in the PCI error handler. Therefore
it's disabled per default. I think meanwhile it's time remove support
for this legacy feature. This helps to reduce complexity of the driver.
