Bug#394030: A couple Broadcom NetXtreme II (bnx2) mappings

What problem are you seeing?  These entries are already present in the
pci-26.lst, as these kernel modules are only available in 2.6 kernels.

  % egrep '14e4164c|14e416ac' pci*.lst
  pci-26.lst: 14e4164c ethernet bnx2 NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet
  pci-26.lst: 14e416ac unknown bnx2 NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet
  pci.lst: 14e4164c ethernet unknown NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet
  pci.lst: 14e416ac unknown unknown NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet
  %

I've just updated the bus class for the second device in svn, making
sure it is listed as an ethernet device.  This should not affect the
behavior.

It would be nice if the script used to generate pci*.lst only inserted
entries in pci-26.lst when the 2.4 value used in pci.lst wasn't
unknown.  But this is not implemented.
