259436a505 bnx2: Update 5709 firmware.
New firmware fixes a data corruption issue when receiving and
placing jumbo frames into host buffers.  In some cases, the
buffer descriptor is not updated correctly and this will lead
to the driver linking the wrong number of pages into the SKB.

4f83ec19bb bnx2: Update TPAT firmware
This change allows the first TX ring (CID 16) and the first TSS TX ring
(CID 32) to be used concurrently.  Before this change, we could get TSO
errors when both TX rings were used concurrently.

d25be1d3ec bnx2: Update RV2P firmware for 5709.
The new RV2P firmware fixes 2 issues:

1. The jumbo rx buffer page size is now configurable and set to the
   proper PAGE_SIZE.  Before, it was assumed to be always 4K.

2. Driver sometimes would crash when receiving jumbo packets mixed
   with firmware management packets.  This was caused by the old
   firmware DMA'ing to the wrong address.

ea1f8d5c3a [BNX2]: Optimize firmware loading.
This is a follow up to the patches from Denys Vlasenkos
<vda.linux@googlemail.com> to further optimize firmware loading.

1. In bnx2_init_cpus(), we allocate memory for decompression once
and use it repeatedly instead of doing this for every firmware image.

2. We eliminate the BSS and SBSS firmware sections in bnx2_fw*.h since
these are always zeros.

b3448b0bde [BNX2]: factor out gzip unpacker
This patch modifies gzip unpacking code in bnx2 driver so that
it does not depend on bnx2 internals. I will move this code
out of the driver and into zlib in follow-on patch.

It can be useful in other drivers which need to store firmwares
or any other relatively big binary blobs - fonts, cursor bitmaps,
whatever.

Patch is run tested by Michael Chan (driver author).
