Title:
  Backport more recent Broadcom bnxt_en driver

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  New

Bug description:
  We need to support newer Broadcom NetXtreme NICs than what the current
  bnxt_en driver can handle.

  The plan is to provide a separate driver module called bnxt_en_bpo
  which is a backported driver from Broadcom. This driver will be
  modified to only support the new NICs that the current kernel driver
  does not support.
