I just found this in RedHat's bugzilla.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=143451

Basically someone put in a bug report on this same thing.  This is 
RedHat's response.

---------
I'm reassigning this to Product Management, since the sk98lin
network driver is currently unsupported.  This is essentially
a feature request (to support and update the driver).
---------

So it all depends on how much some of the big name people put the 
squeeze on R.H. I think.
But it looks like for now, getting the driver from Marvell is the thing 
to do.
