> 1) Add all E4 FastLinQ qed* drivers (qed, qede, qedr, qedi, qedf)
> 2) Add all E3 FastLinQ bnx* drivers (bnx2, cnic, bnx2x, bnx2i, bnx2fc)

bnx2 and bnx2x are already enabled. As noted, qed/qede have already been
enabled in LP: #1743569.

qedr appears to be a ROCE driver. I don't have a lot of experience with
ROCE - is there a realistic need for that at install-time? (Note that
the driver is already present after install).

bnx2fc, bnx2i, qedf and qedi appear to be storage drivers (over
network). If added, would these actually be usable in an installer
environment?

According to Kconfig, cnic supports offload features. It looks like the
bnx2 driver actually runs the adapter - so it doesn't seem like
something that should go into the installer.
