  Installer initrd missing kernels for Intel X710 Adapter

Bug description:
  The installer initrd is missing the i40e modules for ethernet cards
  like the Intel X710.  I was able to grab the latest from Intel's site,
  compile the driver, respin the initrd, and get the installer to work:

  https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24411/Network-Adapter-
  Driver-for-PCI-E-40-Gigabit-Network-Connections-under-Linux-

  Can we include the i40e module into nic-modules so that the debian-
  installer netboot kernels will work on this card?

  Thanks,

  Ant
