The X520 family of network devices, with the 82599 chip, support a small number of Intel-verified SFP+ modules on their NICs. To maintain stability and quality, the current devices restrict untested 3rd party SFP+ modules. This patch introduces a module parameter for ixgbe to allow these untested modules at the user's peril. It also includes a warning to the syslog alerting users that the modules aren't supported, and results may vary.
