I only object when adding new nodes which are wrong. If we keep adding

This wasn't adding an allegedly (sorry, it worked for me) broken node,
it was removing one that worked for me all along. Obviously I do not know
if it worked (or if it is even used) on real hardware, but it worked for
the fuji-bmc qemu emulation.
It probably does work on real hardware, because it is one of those
"two wrongs makes a right" cases. So i see this as a regression. The
node should not be removed. It should hopefully get corrected sometime
in the future when somebody actually fixes the aspeed driver, and
fixes both wrongs.
So you are trying to force the issue by disabling the Ethernet interface
on fuji-bmc until the problem in the driver (whatever it is) has been fixed ?
That just seems odd.
Never mind, this is not my hardware. I just used it for testing, after all.
Again, I already dropped network interface testing on that emulation,
so for me the issue is closed.
