You may consider adding a space after the curly brace at a later time.

0x1077 is also known as PCI_VENDOR_ID_QLOGIC.

You should imho use a macro to factor out the vendor.

At your choice, you may:
1. try a second macro to paste "Converged Network Adapter (TCP/IP Networking)"
2. save some kernel memory through replacement of
   short_name[QLCNIC_MAX_BOARD_NAME_LEN] (short indeed :o) ) by a char **.

Nit: rework qlcnic_get_board_name to avoid its sprintf and 
     QLCNIC_MAX_BOARD_NAME_LEN sized string in qlcnic_probe.
