SRU justification:

Impact: Newer Atheros NICS AR8121/AR8113/AR8114/AR8131/AR8132 with PCI
ID's 0x1969:1026 0x1969:1062 0x1969:1063 0x1969:1066,0x1969:1067 are not
supported in Hardy.

Fix: Patch attached - derived from sources originally from

Testcase: NICs with the PCI ID's listed above without the patch result
in no detection. With the patch they are detected and the NICs are
enabled.
