** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
  At the moment the mlxbf-gige and gpio-mlxbf2 driver are broken in the
  ubuntu image because they are out of date. These drivers are dependent
  on the ACPI tables in UEFI. UEFI is up to date but those drivers need to
  be synced up with the latest nvidia drivers.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ * "Syncup with the latest gpio-mlxbf2 and mlxbf-gige drivers"
+ * Move the GPIO interrupt code from the mlxbf_gige driver
+   to the mlxbf_gige driver in preparation for the next
+   upstreaming patch.
+ * This creates a dependency between the gpio and gige drivers.
+ * Split up the mlxbf_gige_main.c file into several files
+    for better readability.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ * Check if the gpio driver is loaded
+ * Check if the gige driver is loaded
+ * Check that the oob_net0 interface is up and operational
+ * Do reset and powercycle and check the oon_net0 interface again
+ * Test different GPIO interrupts on different boards.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ The Mellanox driver would fail to be loaded(?) / no network
+ connectivity.
+ 
+ * The gpio driver always needs to be loaded before the gige driver due to 
this new dependecy.
+ * The ACPI table needs to be in sync with change.
+ 
+ [Other]
+ * This code is likely to change depending on feedback we received from 
maintainers.
