[Bug 927782] [NEW] include the Atheros AR8131/AR8151/AR8152/AR8161 Ethernet driver

[James M. Leddy]

Public bug reported:

Around the same time frame as the 12.04 release, we will see
AR8131/AR8151/AR8152/AR8161 available on consumer machines. If the
driver is not accepted into linux-next by the time we have a kernel
freeze, we will probably need to support this via lbm or other means.

Here is the first post of the driver
