Update 5709 mips firmware to 6.2.1a to fix iSCSI performance
regression.  There was an unnecessary context read in the fast path
affecting performance.

Update bnx2 to 2.1.6.

Based on original patch by Ben Hutchings &lt;ben@decadent.org.uk&gt; and
Bastian Blank &lt;waldi@debian.org&gt;, with the following main changes:

Separated the mips firmware and rv2p firmware into different files
to make it easier to update them separately.

Added some code to fixup the rv2p code with run-time information
such as PAGE_SIZE.

Update version to 2.0.0.
