newer bnx chips use a separate firmware to the "old" ones. this updates the b06 firmware for the older chips, and adds the b09 firmware. there are three variants of the rv2p code thats loaded onto the chips, so this has been split out into separate firmware files as well.
the driver has been updated to handle the split firmwares, and to easily allow loading of the different versions. this change only supports the loading of the firmwares for the currently supported chips.
after this change you must build the new firmwares and install them as well as your new kernel.
