Bug#688364: BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe not supported in squeeze baseline kernel



Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64
Version: 2.6.32-42


No network interfaces detected on setup or system boot. Wheezy's lspci
has detected card as: 14e4:165f BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe

There are 0147-tg3-Remove-5720-5750-and-5750M.patch patch in source,
that removed pre-production device support
( http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg196227.html )

That's ( http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/index.rhtmlx?check=1&lspci=14e4:165f
) show device supported with 3.0 kernel. I have
looking forward in -45 patchset and with vanilla 2.6.34-13 kernel with
no result.

This card is base chassis option for new dell server product line,
that already have 'almost fixed' bug #666108. So, what about to
backport?
I am ready to provide any extra information.
