Public bug reported:
We need to support newer Broadcom NetXtreme NICs than what the current
bnxt_en driver can handle.
The plan is to provide a separate driver module called bnxt_en_bpo which
is a backported driver from Broadcom. This driver will be modified to
only support the new NICs that the current kernel driver does not
support.
