I've tried their driver on CURRENT(It needs a minor modification to
compile on CURRENT). But the driver didn't recognize link and even
it panicked with numeros witness warnings when I enabled jumbo frame
support.
In addition it didn't attach for DGE530T. I think there driver is
in experimental stage not for production use. In order to support
Yukon II we need a documentation from Marvell.
