commit 68273712a19e9107a498a371532b3b3eb6dbb14c
Author: Nithin Sujir <nsujir>

    tg3: Add support for new 577xx device ids
    
    This patch adds support for 57764, 57765, 57787, 57782 and 57786
    devices.

This was proposed only for net-next. So we will have to include it beforehand
to fix this.

Applies cleanly to 3.12.6
