Reading the release notes, the igb driver has been merged into the Intel
em driver so that should be added to custom kernels. No problem.

Question is, when the system reboots, are the NIC devices going to come
up with "emX" now or will they remain "igbX" ?

Kind of important to know on remote upgrading a server...
