Thank you for confirming this.  Do you have an idea of what sort of timescale a new release of the Trusty netboot image will be?  The July 29 image is still the last version posted.
If it is not soon, the end customer would be happy to accept a pre-release image from Canonical.

Title:
  Add sfc to nic-modules udeb

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  == [Trusty][Vivid]SRU Justification ==

  It is being requested that we add the sfc driver to the nic-modules
  udeb to facilitate PXE booting nodes with Solarflare network adapters.

  == Fix ==
  Add the sfc driver to our nic-modules udeb.  This is being requested for
  Trusty and Vivid.  Note, this has already been applied to Wily master-next.

  == Testing ==
  I've done test builds of Wily, Vivid, and Trusty and can confirm the sfc driver is seeded into the nic-modules udeb:

  $ dpkg -c nic-modules-4.2.0-3-generic-di_4.2.0-3.3_amd64.udeb | grep "sfc.ko"
  -rw-r--r-- root/root    495305 2015-08-04 22:17 ./lib/modules/4.2.0-3-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/sfc.ko

  $ dpkg -c nic-modules-3.19.0-26-generic-di_3.19.0-26.27_amd64.udeb | grep "sfc.ko"
  -rw-r--r-- root/root    464452 2015-08-04 22:21 ./lib/modules/3.19.0-26-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/sfc.ko

  $ dpkg -c nic-modules-3.13.0-62-generic-di_3.13.0-62.101_amd64.udeb | grep "sfc.ko"
  -rw-r--r-- root/root    436284 2015-08-04 22:22 ./lib/modules/3.13.0-62-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/sfc.ko
