Checking some more I find that the same Intel 82599ES controller based
card is also available in 10GBase-SR versions - it simply depends on
the type of SFP+ used in the card. See for instance
http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=39773
http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=39774
Thus the *correct* solution to my problem is probably to retrieve the
optics type from the SFP+, instead of setting it statically in the
driver. Until such a solution is available, my 1-line patch works for
me...
