	The reason why you will not find the Broadcom 5788 definition in
	the PCI database is because it has not been submitted yet.  The
	chipset is recent.

	I have cross checked it with Linux Broadcom (rivers/net/tg3.c)
	driver and am very sure that it is only an addition of a PCI
	ID, and no special case code was added for that chipset.

	It is safe to commit the PCI ID of this (BCM5788) chipset.

	Cheers.
