These are the patches between 3.52 and 3.53:

[TG3]: Bump driver version and reldate.
[TG3]: Skip phy power down on some devices
[TG3]: Fix SRAM access during tg3_init_one()
[TG3]: Don't mark tg3_test_registers() as returning ...
[TG3]: make drivers/net/tg3.c:tg3_request_irq() static
[TG3]: netif_carrier_off runs too early; could still ..

I cannot think of anything in here that can cause MAC address failure on
your 5702. The 3rd one "Fix SRAM access .." is a remote and only
possibility. Can you back out that patch to see if it works? Let me know
if you want me to send you the patch.

I tested some 5702 NICs here and they worked fine. Thanks.
