PATCH 1/1 sfc: Correct address of gPXE boot configuration in EEPROM

Due to a hardware bug, the originally assigned range cannot reliably be used for boot configuration and must not be modifiable through ethtool.

This is for 2.6.28. It only affects the ethtool EEPROM access code that is new in this release cycle.
