The best solution would be to MFC the driver from -CURRENT to 6.1R, the = second alternative would be to add the 5780 PCI vendor/device ID to the = 6.1R driver, add a BGE_ASICREV_BCM5780 definition to if_bgereg.h, and = make sure that any references to the 5714 also include a reference to = the 5780. (Try a diff between 1.134 and 1.135 on -CURRENT to quickly = identify the relevant changes.)
