While updating the bnx2 driver on a 2.6.24.7 based rpm and after reading
some of your messages...
commit df7f1ed6b85b936a4dd341c48e30aa207697997c

Update firmware to support programmable flow control.

After this bnx2.c would be updated to have a:
MODULE_FIRMWARE_DEFAULT("df7f1ed6b85b936a4dd341c48e30aa207697997c");
to be obtained from firmware.git, and if some chip revisions needed
something different we could have a MODULE_FIRMWARE_PCI(vendor, product,
older-git-object) or something along these lines.
Some drivers could well prefer a more loose keying scheme, like
"foo-firmware-v2" and get the latest version of this from firmware.git.
