Broadcom BCM5714 ethernet not recognized by 6.0-RELEASE

[Michael Proto]

Do you have ACPI disabled by any chance? I ran into a similar situation
with a BCM5751 (I think) and 5.4 with ACPI disabled. I was able to
resolve it by enabling ACPI, at which point the card was successfully
recognized by the bge driver.
