Bug Description
SRU Justification:
Impact: The e1000e driver shipped with Hardy does not support the 82574L cards found on some newer server boards. This prevents any network connection for those.
Fix: Pick the latest standalone driver from Intel and replace the current e1000e code in the backports modules package with that.
Testcase: Using the new backports driver network card(s) are detected and working. Before that no network card was detected.
