The netra is a very quirky box, so it may be that additional hacks are required.

I've had conflicting reports as to wether this actually works. We've tried a hack in the MD code to deal with the missing function 0, but appparently there are still phy problems that stop the interface from working. I'd like to avoid adding hacks to the MI pci code to support devices that don't follow the PCI spec, and we can't really do this so late in the release cycle without a good idea of how it affects other platforms.
