7510873d86 [BNX2]: Fix Xen problem.
This fixes the problem of not receiving packets in the Xen bridging
environment.  The Xen script sets the device's MAC address to
FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and puts the device in promiscuous mode.  The
firmware had problem receiving all packets in this configuration.

New firmware and setting the PROM_VLAN bit when in promiscuous mode
will fix this problem.

ade2bfe7d1 [BNX2]: Fix UDP checksum verification
Fix TCP/UDP checksum verification. Use status bits in the buffer
descriptor instead of the checksum value to verify rx checksum.
Using the checksum value will be incorrect if the UDP packet has
zero in the UDP checksum field.

Firmware update required for this fix.
