Hi Jon, The original error message you mentioned "failed to load because an unsupported SFP+ module type was detected." is triggered ixgbe not getting the correct identifier back when it queries the NIC's EEPROM. Normally this means just what the message says, you have a SFP+ module in the NIC that isn't supported.
Now in your case I'm not that sure as you also got the NMI error. I have a couple questions. - do you see the NMI error every time you boot? If so could you send us some of the log like you did with the unsupported SFP+ message? - Have you tried loading without and SFP+ module in the system? Do you still see the failure? - Have you tried updating your BIOS like it was mentioned in the BZ?
