Any Broadcom/Intel (bnx/e1000) cards that have gone through the Red
Hat Hardware Certifications should be a safe bet.  (check the product
specs for a card similar to what you want, then go to
hardware.redhat.com to see if that server is certified. If so, there
is a good chance of support.

Alternative, check bugzilla/git.kernel.org for commits related to the
NIC model#.
