So I tried to apply just the networking bits but none of the ixgbe
parts apply properly to net-next-2.6, so this patch series will
need to be respun and resubmitted in it's entirety so I can
apply it properly.

It seems that the ixgbe driver now maintains feature flags differently
than whatever revision of the driver these patches were generated
against.
