I would suggest you budget some money to pay a driver developer
to back-port the NIC driver.  Even then your going to have a bit
of trouble finding someone to do it unless you are offering a lot
of money.

Unless you are doing this for some kind of mass-produced device,
it would likely be cheaper to just disable the NIC and use a supported
one.
