Hello Joseph,
so the official/canonical way to get support for new hardware is to
install any of the lts-backports kernel because drivers do not get
backported into the lts kernel itself, correct?

If support for the i210/i217 NIC's landed in 3.5, they should be
supported with the 12.04.2 or newer Precise point releases since those
will ship with a newer kernel by default, ie. 12.04.2==Quantal Kernel,
12.04.3 == Raring Kernel, 12.04.4 == Saucy Kernel.
There is some info avaiable at:

Hi Joseph,
Initial support was added mostly upstream kernel 3.5
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2fbe4526e5aafc9ffa5d85fa4749a7c5b22af6b2

No need to test the upstream kernel as requested in comment #2. It
sounds like there is already a fix in 3.5 and newer kernels. Do you
happen to know the SHA1 for the fix? If not, I can do some searches.
