Does this help:

So it looks to me like support for that device was added to the igb 
driver in kernel-2.6.18-238.el5 (RHEL-5.6).

The 5.4 kernel is old and unsupported so you should upgrade.

Alternatively, try kmod-igb from elrepo which has the current release:

# yum list kmod-igb

Available Packages
kmod-igb.x86_64                    3.3.6-1.el5.elrepo 
   elrepo
