You realize that your mail client is removing all the EOL characters, 
right?  The output above is nearly unreadable, however again, I don't 
see Marvell mentioned anywhere.

I don't see anything in the output above to suggest that you've got a 
Marvell NIC.

forcedeth, the same as your system is using.  Is there a reason why 
you're restarting all networking on the box just to bring up a single
