There is actually a defect in the bge driver that will identify a 5702
as
a 5703.  This is caused by the fact that both the 5702 and the 5703 use
the
same ASIC IDs in hardware and the bge driver doesn't do any further
checking
to separate the two.  My testing confirmed that the bge driver
incorrectly 
identified a 5702 as a 5703.

That's good to know.  If at least one of the other users who reported a 
problem with my last patch can confirm that the issue is also fixed by 
this change then I'll go ahead and commit it.
